Raycast: 🦙 Bring Your Own Model

Bring Your Own Model brings three familiar ways to use your preferred AI models back to Raycast v2. Connect any OpenAI-compatible endpoint with Custom Providers , run models through Ollama with Local Models , or add your OpenRouter API key to choose from its catalog. Once configured, your models are available across Raycast AI alongside Raycast’s built-in options. In v2, Custom Providers, Local Models, and Bring Your Own Key require a Raycast Pro subscription. We know this is a meaningful change compared to v1 and want to be upfront about it. You can read more about our thinking and where we’re heading on the BYOAI article in the Manual . ✨ New AI : Added support OpenAI-compatible custom providers, local models via Ollama, and OpenRouter API keys, using their models across Raycast AI Quick AI : Added a Paste Formatted Response action Window Management : Added Resize Window and Move Window commands that take exact pixel dimensions and coordinates as arguments Window Management : Added Create Layout From Current Windows command allowing for quick capturing custom layouts from the windows currently on screen.
