Hi Vowen team,
I’m trying to connect a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint via “Custom API (OpenAI-compatible)”, but the Connect step fails with:
“Custom API server did not respond to either chat/completions or responses format. Check your Base URL and model name.”
My config in Vowen:
Base URL: http://127.0.0.1:20128 (also tested with /v1)
Default model: kr/claude-sonnet-4.5
API key: tested both empty and provided
The backend is reachable and responds correctly:
GET /v1/models returns a valid model list including:
kr/claude-sonnet-4.5
kiro/claude-sonnet-4.5
kr/claude-haiku-4.5
kiro/claude-haiku-4.5
POST /v1/chat/completions returns valid OpenAI-style responses.
POST /v1/responses returns valid OpenAI Responses API output.
From testing, it looks like the connection validator may be rejecting valid OpenAI-compatible responses in this setup (possibly related to streaming/SSE handling or strict response parsing during Connect).
Could you please confirm what exact validation request Vowen sends during Connect and what response shape/content-type it expects?
I can provide full request/response samples if needed.
Please authenticate to join the conversation.
