Oatda text completion

OATDA Text Completion

Generate text from 10+ LLM providers through OATDA's unified API.

API Key Resolution

All commands need the OATDA API key. Resolve it inline for each exec call:

export OATDA_API_KEY="${OATDA_API_KEY:-$(cat ~/.oatda/credentials.json 2>/dev/null | jq -r '.profiles[.defaultProfile].apiKey' 2>/dev/null)}"

If the key is empty or null, tell the user to get one at https://oatda.com and configure it.

Security: Never print the full API key. Only verify existence or show first 8 chars.

Example

User: "Write a haiku about code using claude"

export OATDA_API_KEY="${OATDA_API_KEY:-$(cat ~/.oatda/credentials.json 2>/dev/null | jq -r '.profiles[.defaultProfile].apiKey' 2>/dev/null)}" && \
curl -s -X POST "https://oatda.com/api/v1/llm" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OATDA_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "provider": "anthropic",

    "prompt": "Write a haiku about code",
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "maxTokens": 256
  }'

Notes

• The API expects prompt as a plain string, NOT a messages array
• Split provider/model into separate JSON fields
• For long-form content, increase maxTokens
• Use oatda-list-models to see all available models
• Use oatda-vision-analysis for image analysis tasks
