Providers

Skilleo orchestrates your provider accounts. Skilleo does not store customer API keys — you manage secrets; Skilleo stores only connection pointers (Secrets).

# Set keys in YOUR env / secret manager first, then register pointers:
client.providers.connect("openai")
client.providers.connect("anthropic")
client.providers.connect("gemini")
client.providers.connect("minimax")
client.providers.connect("elevenlabs")
client.providers.connect("aws")
client.providers.connect("runpod")

Default secret_ref per provider: OPENAI_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, RUNPOD_API_KEY, etc.

Routing policy

Workload	Allowed connections	Rule
llm.generate	openai, anthropic, gemini, minimax, aws, runpod	Use any connected LLM provider. Skilleo picks by optimize_for or you pin with options.provider.
speech.generate, voice.clone	minimax, elevenlabs	Must connect MiniMax or ElevenLabs. No other voice backends.
image.generate, GPU infra	runpod	RunPod only for GPU workloads.

Default when multiple LLM backends exist: MiniMax (source.routing.default_provider). Voice defaults to MiniMax when both voice providers are connected. See Platform availability for the full capability and provider matrix.

By provider

Connection	Billed by	Used for
openai	OpenAI	llm.generate
anthropic	Anthropic	llm.generate (Claude)
gemini	Google	llm.generate
minimax	MiniMax	llm.generate, speech.generate, voice.clone
elevenlabs	ElevenLabs	speech.generate, voice.clone
aws	AWS	llm.generate via Bedrock
runpod	RunPod	GPU, image.generate, optional LLM via public endpoint

Aliases at register time: claude → anthropic, google → gemini, bedrock → aws.

Examples

LLM — pick any connected provider

client.providers.connect("anthropic")

run = client.capabilities.run(
    "llm.generate",
    version="1",
    input={"objective": "Summarize Kenya wildlife"},
    options={"provider": "anthropic"},
)

Voice — MiniMax or ElevenLabs only

client.providers.connect("elevenlabs")

run = client.capabilities.run(
    "speech.generate",
    version="1",
    input={"text": "Earth stops spinning. Here is what happens next."},
    options={"provider": "elevenlabs"},
)

GPU — RunPod only

client.providers.connect("runpod")

run = client.capabilities.run(
    "image.generate",
    version="1",
    input={"prompt": "a red cube"},
    options={"endpoint_id": "ep_..."},
)

Agent manifests

Declare which providers an app may use per capability:

requires:
  llm.generate:
    providers: [openai, anthropic, gemini, minimax, aws, runpod]
  speech.generate:
    providers: [minimax, elevenlabs]
  image.generate:
    providers: [runpod]

Skilleo subscription is separate from all provider usage.
