Steps
- 1
Create your key in the app: app.vaelico.ai → API keys → New key (it starts with
vk_). - 2
In SillyTavern, open the API Connections panel (the plug icon at the top).
- 3
Set API to Chat Completion.
- 4
Set Chat Completion Source to Custom (OpenAI-compatible).
- 5
Paste
https://api.vaelico.ai/v1into Custom Endpoint (Base URL). Do not add/chat/completions— SillyTavern appends it automatically. - 6
Paste your
vk_key into Custom API Key and click Connect — if the key is right, the model list loads. - 7
Pick artemis from Available Models.

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.
