### Combined setup for installed CLI

Source: https://evolink.ai/docs/en/cli/claude-code

Run the setup command to check the environment, synchronize skills, sign in when needed, and verify access. Look for 'setup_complete: true'; host discovery still needs confirmation.

```bash
evolink setup --agent claude-code --json
```

--------------------------------

### Run Hermes setup wizard

Source: https://evolink.ai/docs/en/integration-guide/hermes

Starts the interactive setup wizard to configure the EvoLink endpoint. Select 'custom endpoint' and enter the API base URL, API key, and compatibility mode.

```bash
hermes model

```

--------------------------------

### Combined setup for an installed CLI

Source: https://evolink.ai/docs/en/cli/cursor

Run `evolink setup` to check the environment, synchronize skills, sign in when needed, and verify access. Look for `setup_complete: true`; host discovery still needs confirmation. Use `phase`, `steps`, `error`, and `recovery` to identify failures.

```bash
evolink setup --agent cursor --json

```

### POST /v1/responses

Source: https://evolink.ai/docs/en/api-manual/language-series/glm/responses/responses-quickstart

Creates a model response. The minimum required fields are model and input. The examples also set an output budget and reasoning effort to help you get started.

```APIDOC
## POST /v1/responses

### Description
Creates a model response. The minimum required fields are model and input. The examples also set an output budget and reasoning effort to help you get started.

### Method
POST

### Endpoint
/v1/responses

### Parameters
#### Request Body
- **model** (string) - Required - The model to use for the response.
- **input** (string/array) - Required - The input prompt or messages.
- **output_budget** (integer) - Optional - The maximum number of output tokens to generate.
- **reasoning** (object) - Optional - Contains the reasoning effort configuration.
  - **effort** (string) - Optional - The reasoning effort level. Supported values: `low`, `high`, `max`, `xhigh`, `medium`, `minimal`, `none`. See compatibility rules for glm-5.3 series.

### Request Example
{
  "model": "glm-5.3",
  "input": "Hello, world!",
  "output_budget": 1000,
  "reasoning": {
    "effort": "low"
  }
}

### Response
#### Success Response (200)
- **id** (string) - The response ID.
- **object** (string) - The object type, e.g., "response".
- **created_at** (integer) - Unix timestamp of creation.
- **status** (string) - The status of the response.
- **output** (array) - The generated output items.
- **usage** (object) - Token usage details, including `output_tokens` and `reasoning_tokens`.

#### Response Example
{
  "id": "resp_123",
  "object": "response",
  "created_at": 1710000000,
  "status": "completed",
  "output": [
    {
      "type": "message",
      "role": "assistant",
      "content": [
        {
          "type": "output_text",
          "text": "Hello! How can I help you?"
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "usage": {
    "output_tokens": 10,
    "reasoning_tokens": 0
  }
}

### Notes
- The default BaseURL is `https://direct.evolink.ai`, which has better support for text models and long-lived connections. `https://api.evolink.ai` is the primary endpoint for multimodal services and serves as a fallback address for text models.
- Responses uses nested `reasoning.effort`, rather than top-level `reasoning_effort` or thinking.
- Reasoning usage is included in `output_tokens`. Simple tasks may return `reasoning_tokens=0`; this does not imply that thinking can be disabled.
- **Compatibility rules for `glm-5.3` / `glm-5.3-flash` / `glm-5.3-flashx`**:
  - `low` / `high` / `max` - Unchanged
  - `xhigh` - `max`
  - `medium` - `high`
  - `minimal` / `none` - `low`; thinking remains enabled
- `minimal` and `none` do not disable thinking on the 5.3 series. Thinking tokens are billed as output. Unrecognized values are unchanged and have no compatibility mapping; use the listed values. These mappings do not apply to glm-5.2.
- On this endpoint, `glm-5.2` may still produce reasoning tokens with `none`. This value does not guarantee that thinking is disabled.
```

Set up EvoLink so I can generate images, video and audio directly here.
1. Install the CLI: run `npm install -g @evolinkai/cli`.
2. Sign in: run `evolink auth login`.
3. Install the companion skill: run `evolink skills install`.
