# DimiLinks API Documentation

> For developers: build Claude and GPT text conversations, create images with gpt-image-2, and generate videos with grok-imagine-video.

DimiLinks provides a unified API that follows familiar OpenAI and Anthropic conventions. A single Bearer key lets you call text models including Claude and GPT, submit `gpt-image-2` image tasks, and submit `grok-imagine-video` video tasks.

<Note>
  We recommend using the asynchronous workflow for both image and video generation: submit a task, then poll the task endpoint for the result.

## Base URL

DimiLinks provides two domains, one for each protocol family:

| Protocol family   | Base URL                            | Supported SDKs / clients                                                |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| OpenAI-compatible | `https://dimilinks.com/v1`          | OpenAI SDK, Codex CLI, and the OpenAI providers in Cursor and Continue  |
| Native Anthropic  | `https://api-direct.dimilinks.com/` | Anthropic SDK, Claude Code, and the Anthropic provider in Cherry Studio |

Use `dimilinks.com` for OpenAI-style endpoints such as `/v1/chat/completions`, `/v1/images/*`, `/v1/videos/*`, and `/v1/models`. Use `api-direct.dimilinks.com` for native Anthropic endpoints such as `/v1/messages`. Both domains use the same Bearer key.

## Recommended workflows

```text theme={null}
POST https://dimilinks.com/v1/chat/completions          # Chat (OpenAI-compatible; recommended for coding)
POST https://api-direct.dimilinks.com/v1/messages       # Chat (native Anthropic protocol)
POST https://dimilinks.com/v1/images/generations?async=true  # Image: asynchronous submission
POST https://dimilinks.com/v1/videos/generations             # Video: asynchronous submission (asynchronous by default)
GET  https://dimilinks.com/v1/tasks/{task_id}                # Shared image / video task retrieval
```
