OpenAI

Use GPT models in BOR with an OpenAI API key. Adapter: server/providers/openai.js.

​
Setup

  1. Get an API key from the OpenAI platform (linked from onboarding).
  2. In onboarding, pick OpenAI, paste your key, and choose a model.
  3. BOR validates and you’re ready.

​
Choosing a model

Pick a current GPT model from OpenAI’s live docs — model ids rotate, so avoid stale hardcoded ones. A vision-capable model is recommended so screenshot-based features work (browser previews, locate_screen_element, image attachments).

​
Notes

  • BOR’s multimodal layer handles OpenAI image blocks and streaming via the shared provider utilities.
  • Prompt-prefix caching is supported through a byte-stable prefix where the provider allows it.
  • Edit providers.openai in config.json to change the key/model later, or ask BOR to switch.

​
Troubleshooting

  • 401 — bad key. 404 model — model retired; pick a current one. 429 — rate-limited; slow down or upgrade your plan.
