Tingly Box

Quick Start • Features • Usage • Documentation • Issues

Tingly Box coordinates AI models, optimizes context, and routes requests for maximum efficiency — with built-in remote control and secure, customizable integrations.

Key Features

• Unified API – One mixin endpoint to rule them all, use what you like - OpenAI / Anthropic / Google, seamlessly bridge all of them with auto translation
• Smart Routing, Not Just Load Balancing – Intelligently route requests across models and tokens based on cost, speed, or custom policies, not simple load balancing
• Smart Context Compression – (Coming soon) Automatically distill context to its essential parts: sharper relevance, lower cost, and faster responses
• Blazing Fast – Adds typically < 1ms of overhead—so you get flexibility without latency tax
• Flexible Auth – Support for both API keys and OAuth (e.g., Claude.ai), so you can use your existing quotas anywhere
• Visual Control Plane – Intuitive UI to manage providers, routes, aliases, and models at a glance
• Client Side Usage Stats - Track token consumption, latency, cost estimates, and model selection per request—directly from your client
• Remote Control - Control your AI agents remotely via IM bots (Slack, Discord, Telegram, DingTalk, Feishu). Interact with your agents from anywhere without direct server access

• ……

Any application is ready to use.

We've provided detailed config guide in application

OpenAI SDK

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="your-tingly-model-token",
    base_url="http://localhost:12580/tingly/openai/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="tingly-gpt",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
print(response)

Anthropic SDK

from anthropic import Anthropic

client = Anthropic(
    api_key="your-tingly-model-token",
    base_url="http://localhost:12580/tingly/anthropic"
)

response = client.messages.create(
    model="tingly",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
    ]
)
print(response)

Tingly Box proxies requests transparently for SDKs and CLI tools.

Using OAuth Providers

You can also add OAuth providers (like Claude Code) and use your existing quota in any OpenAI-compatible tool:

# 1. Add Claude Code via OAuth in Web UI (http://localhost:12580)
# 2. Configure your tool with Tingly Box endpoint

Requests route through your OAuth-authorized provider, using your existing Claude Code quota instead of requiring a separate API key.

This works with any tool that supports OpenAI-compatible endpoints: Cherry Studio, VS Code extensions, or custom AI agents.
