# ScriptEngine > ScriptEngine provides prepaid cloud model credits through one OpenAI-compatible API base URL at https://scriptengine.org/v1. ScriptEngine is an independent API service. Hermes Agent is an open-source third-party project developed by Nous Research; the tutorials below explain how to connect Hermes to ScriptEngine. Important integration facts: - Use exactly `https://scriptengine.org/v1` as the API base URL. - The base URL is not a human-readable page; opening `/v1` directly may return 404. - API requests use bearer authentication with a private ScriptEngine API key. - Available model IDs can change. Use authenticated model discovery instead of assuming a fixed catalog. - Never expose an API key in prompts, screenshots, repositories, support tickets, or public documents. ## Main - [ScriptEngine](https://scriptengine.org/): Product overview, account access, credit plans, model availability, and the OpenAI-compatible API endpoint. -
