Getting a Kilo Code key

Free models need no key (200 requests/hour per IP)
Or create a Kilo account and get an API key (JWT tied to the account) per the gateway authentication guide
Call https://api.kilo.ai/api/gateway with Authorization: Bearer <key> and a :free model id

These steps are a summary of the provider’s console and were not re-walked with a new account; the screens may differ. Open the Kilo Code console.
