:dev models accept only ek-dev- keys, and DevPass keys can call only :dev models. Keep your master key configured if you need the rest of the catalog.Quickstart
- Subscribe on the Dashboard → Console → Coding Plan.
- Your
ek-dev-...key is provisioned within seconds and always retrievable from the Coding Plan tab (regenerating it instantly kills the old key everywhere). - Use it as a Bearer token:
Fair Use
DevPass is flat-rate — no per-token billing, no request quota. Instead of cutting you off, heavy usage is simply slowed down:Parallel requests
Parallel requests
Each plan allows a set number of requests running at the same time (2 on Lite, 5 on Turbo) — there’s no requests-per-minute limit. If all your slots are busy, you get a
429 with a Retry-After header; wait for one to finish and retry.Heavy days
Heavy days
Each plan includes a generous daily usage allowance (resets 21:00 UTC). Going past it never blocks you — responses may just be slower until the reset.
Sudden spikes
Sudden spikes
Firing a very large number of requests within a few seconds may get a brief
429. Normal coding-agent workloads fit comfortably.Errors
| Status | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
429 | All parallel slots busy, or too many requests at once | Honor Retry-After, then retry |
404 model error | Model not in the Coding Plan list | Use a :dev model |
403 | Subscription suspended or ended | Check payment method / resubscribe |
Terms
- Monthly billing via Creem, auto-renewing, non-refundable. Cancel any time — your key stays active until the period ends.
- Individual use only. Sharing or reselling a key leads to suspension; chargebacks are treated as account-level violations.
- Home, work, laptop, CI, VPNs — all fine. Enforcement targets resale patterns, not normal developer life.
