Cherry Studio

Add AI Nexus as a model provider in Cherry Studio and chat with models from the desktop client.

Cherry Studio is a desktop multi-model chat client with many built-in assistants. Once connected to AI Nexus through the OpenAI-compatible API, you can use any model on the model square that supports /v1/chat/completions.

Verification status

The settings on this page follow the tool's official documentation and have not been tested hands-on against AI Nexus. Labels may change between versions; follow what you actually see. Only two values matter: Base URL and API Key.

Setup

Copy an API key

Create and copy a key on the console's API Keys page; see API Keys.

Add a provider

Open Settings → Model Provider and click Add. Name the provider AI Nexus, set the provider type to OpenAI, and confirm.

Enter connection details

In the new provider, fill in:

  • API Key: sk-xxxxxxxx
  • API Host: https://ai.myaiexp.com

Cherry Studio appends /v1/chat/completions automatically. Check the request URL preview under the field; it should read https://ai.myaiexp.com/v1/chat/completions.

Add models

Click Manage and add the models you need from the list (fetched from GET /v1/models), or enter a model ID from the model square manually. Click Check to verify the connection.

Start chatting

Go back to the chat view and switch to the new model at the top.
