Lightning-Fast Setup with CCProxy

Getting started with Qwen3 235B through CCProxy is ridiculously simple. Here's how to harness this powerhouse in minutes:

Step 1: Configure OpenRouter in CCProxy

First, ensure your CCProxy configuration includes OpenRouter as a provider:

json
{
  "providers": {
    "openrouter": {
      "enabled": true,
      "api_key": "${OPENROUTER_API_KEY}",
      "endpoint": "https://openrouter.ai/api/v1"
    }
  }
}

Step 2: Start CCProxy

bash
ccproxy start

Step 3: Make Your First Request

bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:3456/v1/messages \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: your-api-key" \
  -d '{
    "model": "qwen/qwen-3-235b",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Explain quantum computing in simple terms"
      }
    ],
    "stream": true
  }'

That's it! You're now tapping into one of the most powerful AI models ever created.
