​
Setup

1

Install Continue

Install Continue from the VS Code extension marketplace or JetBrains plugin marketplace.
2

Open the config file

Open Continue settings. A common file path is ~/.continue/config.json.
3

Add a Moxus AI model

Add an OpenAI-compatible model entry to models.
4

Reload the extension

Save the config and reload VS Code or run Reload Window.

​
Example config

{
  "models": [
    {
      "title": "Moxus AI",
      "provider": "openai",
      "model": "gpt-4o",
      "apiKey": "sk-your-key",
      "apiBase": "https://moxus.ai/v1"
    }
  ]
}
If your Continue version uses baseUrl, apiBaseUrl, or another field name, follow the plugin’s current setting name. The endpoint value remains https://moxus.ai/v1.
  • Explain selected code.
  • Generate unit tests or usage examples.
  • Edit a small area in the current file.
  • Ask about errors with selected context.
Editor extensions often include the current file or selected code as context. Large files and broad repository questions increase token usage.

​
Troubleshooting

Check that the JSON is valid, then reload VS Code. Some Continue versions also require refreshing the model list in the Continue panel.
Use the OpenAI-compatible provider name supported by your Continue version, such as openai, openai-compatible, or a custom provider type.
Select fewer files and avoid sending the whole repository at once. Create a separate API key with a quota limit for Continue.
