# Quickstart

> Models API, agents, projects, and VS Code extension entry points

This page lists common setup paths. Pick one track and follow the numbered steps.

## Call the Models API

1. Read [Authentication](/authentication). Create a **virtual key** for **`https://models.ageneral.ai`**.
2. Set the base URL to **`https://models.ageneral.ai`**.
3. Call **`GET /v1/models`**, **`POST /v1/chat/completions`**, or **`POST /v1/responses`** as documented in **API reference** → **Models**.

See [Models](/models) for identifiers, auth, and links to catalog and billing.

## Work with agents

1. Sign in at **`https://ageneral.ai`** and open your **project**.
2. Create or select an **agent**. Attach **connectors**, **secrets**, and **channels** as needed.
3. For OpenClaw behavior, read [OpenClaw runtime](/guides/agents/openclaw) and the linked guides.

See [Agents](/agents) for how agents relate to **Models** and billing.

## Manage projects, members, and keys

1. Use **`https://ageneral.ai`** APIs or the console for **projects**, **members**, and **keys**.
2. Keep **Models** traffic on **`https://models.ageneral.ai`** with **virtual keys** unless an integration states otherwise.

See [Projects](/projects) for API entry points.

## Use the VS Code extension

1. Install **Ageneral Coder** from the [Visual Studio Code Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Ageneral.ageneralcoder).
2. Open **Ageneral Coder** in the activity bar and complete sign-in.
3. Use the Chat pane or **`@ageneral-coder`** in built-in Chat with an **Ageneral** model selected.

See [VS Code](/vs-code) for requirements, settings, and troubleshooting.
