Cherry Studio

Quick checklist

1. Open Settings and go to Model Services.
2. Add a custom provider named Ling.AI with provider type OpenAI or OpenAI Compatible.
3. Set API address to https://api.vip.lingapi.ai/v1 and paste your Ling.AI API key.
4. Manually add the required model ids returned by /v1/models, including a released image model when image generation is needed.

Chat-entry image boundary

This setup supports chat-style clients and client-neutral Chat-entry image compatibility for locally authorized image models. A supported prompt sent to /v1/chat/completions is routed through the image-generation lifecycle and wrapped for the client. API integrations should still call https://api.vip.lingapi.ai/v1/images/generations directly, and image editing always uses https://api.vip.lingapi.ai/v1/images/edits.

CC Switch

Cherry Studio is configured in its own Model Services UI. CC Switch app-specific provider setup does not apply to Cherry Studio in the current public support list.

Validation

Use the built-in key check when available. Test chat models with text and image models with an explicit generation prompt, confirm that Cherry Studio renders the result, then verify Ling.AI usage and wallet records.

Example

Provider type: OpenAI Compatible
API address: https://api.vip.lingapi.ai/v1
API Key: <YOUR_API_KEY>
Model: <model id from /v1/models>

# Released image models may use the client-neutral /v1/chat/completions bridge.
# Direct API integrations should use POST https://api.vip.lingapi.ai/v1/images/generations; edits use /v1/images/edits.
