Setting up Coding Agents & Tools

Pick a coding agent, configure it for TARS, and start building. Each tool gets a ready-to-paste config file that teaches the agent how TARS works: API patterns, model routing, fallback, cost tracking, and all four endpoints.

Supported agents

Claude Code

Drop CLAUDE.md into the repo so Claude Code uses TARS endpoints and routing patterns.

Cursor

Add a .cursorrules file so Cursor's agent and inline chat default to TARS.

Codex CLI

Install a codex.md so OpenAI's Codex CLI knows the TARS base URL, auth, and endpoints.

Each config takes under two minutes to set up. The coding agent then knows how to use the TARS chat completions, embeddings, image generation, and audio speech endpoints, plus routing, fallback, and cost-tracking patterns.
