SillyTavern

Easiest

The power-user standard for desktop roleplay & chat. Native custom endpoint — the cleanest setup.

Artemis is live in closed beta. Request an invite on the waitlist, then create your API key in the app — these guides take you the rest of the way. Open the app · Join the waitlist

Endpoint

https://api.vaelico.ai/v1

Steps

  1. 1

    Create your key in the app: app.vaelico.ai → API keys → New key (it starts with vk_).

  2. 2

    In SillyTavern, open the API Connections panel (the plug icon at the top).

  3. 3

    Set API to Chat Completion.

  4. 4

    Set Chat Completion Source to Custom (OpenAI-compatible).

  5. 5

    Paste https://api.vaelico.ai/v1 into Custom Endpoint (Base URL). Do not add /chat/completions — SillyTavern appends it automatically.

  6. 6

    Paste your vk_ key into Custom API Key and click Connect — if the key is right, the model list loads.

  7. 7

    Pick artemis from Available Models.

  8. 8

    Send a Test Message to confirm. Tip: the first message with a long imported history takes a while (one-time prompt processing) — after that, the cache makes it fast.

Good to know

Full sampler passthrough: temperature, top_k, top_p, min_p, repetition penalty, presence & frequency penalty, seed, stop and logit_bias all reach the model — your sampling preset applies directly.

Prefill works: "Start Reply With" + Continue prefill sends a trailing assistant message and Artemis continues it. The reply contains only the continuation — your prefill text is not echoed back.
