Server Configuration

Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
HOUTINI_LM_MODELNoPin the model you want, because OpenAI lists dozens and they all score the same in routing. On a big catalogue every unknown model scores the same and the first listed wins, so pin one with HOUTINI_LM_MODEL.
HOUTINI_LM_API_KEYNoAPI key, if the endpoint needs one (e.g. sk-... for OpenAI).
HOUTINI_LM_THINKINGNoThinking is your decision, through HOUTINI_LM_THINKING. The default, auto, switches thinking off for models detected as supporting the toggle (Qwen3, Gemma 4, Nemotron, DeepSeek R1, GLM-4, gpt-oss). off forces that on every call, which you need when a backend serves a thinking model under a name detection can't recognise. on forces thinking on, which is worth it for bug-hunting or checking an argument, at the cost of time and tokens.
HOUTINI_LM_SERIALISENoCalls are queued one at a time by default, because a single GPU can only serve one request anyway. OpenRouter skips the queue, and for OpenAI, a router or a batching backend like vLLM you can turn it off with HOUTINI_LM_SERIALISE=0.
HOUTINI_LM_MIN_TOKENSNoThere's a floor too, because MCP clients habitually pass tiny caps like 256 that strangle reasoning models mid-thought, so anything under 4,096 is ignored unless you set HOUTINI_LM_MIN_TOKENS=0.
HOUTINI_LM_STRUCTUREDNoIf you're driving houtini-lm from your own scripts rather than from Claude, set HOUTINI_LM_STRUCTURED=1 and each inference result also carries a structuredContent block (the answer, model, tokens, timing, quality flags) to read as JSON. Leave it off for Claude Code, which shows the model only that block when it's present.
HOUTINI_LM_ENDPOINT_URLNoThe URL of the OpenAI-compatible endpoint, e.g. http://192.168.1.50:1234 (LM Studio), https://api.openai.com, or a LiteLLM router. LM Studio listens on localhost:1234 by default, which is where houtini-lm looks first.

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
