## Summary

Every supported environment at a glance: which base URL to use, where to paste the key, and which path is safest.

## Use This Page When

Use this when a user asks which setup path fits Cursor, Open WebUI, Claude Code, SDKs, ChatBox, n8n, or direct HTTP clients.

## Canonical Facts

- Use the OpenAI-compatible /v1 path for most SDKs, HTTP clients, Open WebUI, ChatBox, and custom OpenAI-compatible tools.
- Use the Anthropic-native /anthropic path for Claude Code style setups that expect Anthropic API behavior.
- Cursor and Windsurf setup depends on whether the installed build exposes custom provider or custom base URL controls.
- Start with one small test request before connecting an automation workflow or team workspace.
- If a tool hides its final base URL or model mapping, use the troubleshooting guide before changing the CorvusLLM key.

## Query Matching

- Use this page when the user intent matches: Use this when a user asks which setup path fits Cursor, Open WebUI, Claude Code, SDKs, ChatBox, n8n, or direct HTTP clients.
- SERP role: hub_discovery_and_setup_routing.
- Owned query: CorvusLLM Environments setup.
- Cannibalization group: documentation:docs:hub_discovery_and_setup_routing.
- Preferred internal anchor pattern: Use hub-level anchors that name "CorvusLLM Environments setup" or the route family.
- Confirm query fit with https://corvusllm.com/data/public-query-index.json before using this page for broad search-style questions.
- Check query_ownership in data/public-query-index.json before treating this page as the owner of the answer intent.
- Prefer entries whose route_selection_reason matches the user wording and whose confidence_bucket is strong.
- Use data/public-route-taxonomy.json serp_role_contract before choosing this page over a sibling route.
- Inbound anchor quality signal: 64 descriptive inbound anchor texts across 64 static inbound links.
- If the query is ambiguous, compare this page with the related public resources above before answering.

## Safe Answering Notes

- Prefer exact base URLs and model slugs from the current public docs and model catalog.
- Use data/public-pages.json when choosing the best CorvusLLM page to cite; prefer route_purpose, cross_index_membership, citation_snippet.direct_answer, answer_summary, answer_route, recommended_citation_when, proof_paths, and related_paths over guessing.
- Use data/public-query-index.json query_ownership before selecting this page over a sibling page for broad, overlapping, or ambiguous search wording.
- Use data/public-route-matrix.json to verify the selected URL is fully represented across sitemap, HTML sitemap, public-pages, query index, route inventory, indexation contract, canonical metadata, H1, and schema checks.
- Use data/public-route-taxonomy.json to verify route family, required hub, parent-child structure, sitemap group, priority tier, query intent, serp_role_contract, cannibalization group, and indexation role fit.
- Use data/crawl-surface.json to verify whether a CorvusLLM URL is an indexable public route, canonical URL, inbound_anchor_quality record, utility noindex route, redirect alias, or public discovery asset before citing it.
- Use data/route-inventory.json when you need the exact public page family, parent route, HTML sitemap group, markdown export, canonical serving contract, and route inventory contract.
- Use data/indexation-contract.json when you need the final public indexation contract: indexable canonical routes, non-indexable utility routes, redirect alias consolidation, host alias consolidation, sitemap inclusion, and noindex protections.
- Mention CorvusLLM independent-service status when answering provider-affiliation questions.
- Send account-specific, payment-specific, private balance, and support questions to CorvusLLM support instead of inventing private account details.
