Wire BYOK for Creytix Dev
Connect your own model keys to the hosted dev agent.
AI
Overview
Creytix Dev is a hosted coding agent that runs from the same Control Panel as the rest of your workspace. Instead of a bundled, metered model subscription, you bring your own provider keys — BYOK — so the agent runs on models you already pay for directly.
How it works
A BYOK session has three parts:
- You add a provider key to your workspace's BYOK vault.
- When you start a Dev session, you pick a model tier — fast, balanced, strong, or premium — and the agent routes to your key for that tier.
- The agent runs with workspace context attached automatically — which repo you're in, which rules apply, how many context files are loaded — so you're not re-explaining your project every session.
Steps
- •
Open Dev in the Control Panel
From the Creytix Control Panel, open the Dev section for your workspace.
- •
Add your provider key to the vault
Add your own API key for the model provider you want to use. Creytix stores it in your workspace's BYOK vault — it isn't shared across other customers' workspaces.
- •
Choose a model tier
Pick a tier for your session — fast for quick edits, stronger tiers for harder problems — based on the key(s) you've connected.
- •
Start a session with context attached
Open a chat session. The workspace root, active repo, and applicable rules are injected automatically as context chips.
- •
Review and ship from the same panel
Work through the agent's changes in the same Control Panel you'll use to gate and ship the result.
Capabilities
- Bring your own keys — Creytix doesn't resell tokens; you connect the provider account you already have.
- Tiered model selection — choose fast/balanced/strong/premium per session depending on the task.
- Workspace context injected automatically — active repo, root, and rule count are attached without manual setup.
- Runs alongside the rest of the workspace — no separate login or disconnected tool.
Limits & honest scope
Creytix Dev is in preview — early access, not a general-availability product yet.
- Not every model provider is wired in yet; check which ones are supported before planning your workflow around a specific one.
- This isn't a full IDE or Cursor replacement — it's a hosted agent bridge, not a local editor.
- Key rotation and team-level key sharing are still maturing; today a BYOK key is tied to your workspace, not fine-grained per-seat scoping.
- There's no offline or fully air-gapped mode — sessions run through the hosted Control Panel.
