Is there a place to change the endpoint url? It seems we just add the workflow id and generates a secret which is used by the frontend. Apache license is good though


Note that their basic example in the readme starts with `OpenAI(api_key=os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"])`

Generally speaking, in most regular usages, you can replace it with an alternative provider like Openrouter, with `OpenAI( base_url="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1", api_key="<OPENROUTER_API_KEY>")`

But I haven't tested chatkit yet and don't know if it might be using special endpoints that are currently only supported by OpenAI. IANAL, but would assume though that if the client is Apache licensed, then it wouldn't be an issue for Openrouter and others AI providers to develop their own versions of those endpoints.

Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but based on what I'm seeing with MCP and other recent developments, the industry is continuously gravitating towards a commoditized/interchangeable future where no provider has a structural moat.
