Chub / Venus Integration Guide
Connect UnoRouter to Chub.ai (Venus) through the Secrets panel's Reverse proxy option.
Overview
Chub's Secrets panel takes the base URL ending in `/v1` plus your API key. A Check your proxy button verifies the connection before you pick a model in Prompt Structure.

URL ends in `/v1`, base only, no `/chat/completions`. Key is your UnoRouter API key.

- 6Open Configuration and pick OpenAI
In the hamburger menu, open Configuration, then Prompt Structure. Set the API dropdown to OpenAI and pick your model.
Recommended models
Free models that work here. Paste any model id into the client.
Gotchas
- Paste the base URL ending in `/v1` into the Reverse proxy field. Chub appends `/models` for the check, so a full `/v1/chat/completions` URL fails it.
- The model dropdown in Prompt Structure stays empty until the proxy check passes. Run Check your proxy in Secrets first.
- Chub masks the API key after save and you cannot copy it back out. Save it in a password manager before pasting so rotation does not force a new key.
- Chub's warning about reverse proxies from unauthorized third parties targets community relays. UnoRouter is a first-party relay, so your key, logs, and billing stay on UnoRouter.
