How do I use Leiolai in Obsidian Copilot?
In Obsidian Copilot’s BYOK settings, add a custom provider with the Leiolai /v1 URL, your API key, and leiolai-1. Select Leiolai for the relevant chat feature. The chat-provider setup is separate from the provider used for semantic vault search.
Which Obsidian plugin can I use with Leiolai?
Use the Copilot for Obsidian plugin’s BYOK provider settings. Open Settings, Copilot, BYOK, then add a custom provider.
What connection values do I enter?
Use https://api.leiolai.com/v1, your Leiolai API key, and model ID leiolai-1. If model discovery returns no list, enter the model manually. Save the provider and test the connection.
Which API key should I choose for personal notes?
Use a Leiolai Private-only key for confidential notes and conversations. That key can omit mode from the request. An unrestricted key needs mode on every request, so the plugin configuration must provide the intended value.

Open Obsidian Copilot’s Basic, Agents, Quick Chat settings and select Leiolai 1 in the model list. Set Leiolai as the default model if you want new Quick Chat conversations to use Leiolai.

Turn on Enable CORS in Obsidian Copilot’s Leiolai provider settings, then test Quick Chat again. In this mode, the completed answer appears at once rather than streaming.
Does choosing Leiolai change semantic vault search?

What is a useful question to ask about supplied notes?
Give Leiolai in Obsidian the relevant note text and request a summary, unresolved questions, or action items. Tell Leiolai to preserve the names and dates in your notes and list missing information separately.

For an Obsidian request to Leiolai, check the URL, model ID, API key, and mode permission. Read the status and error code before changing settings. A balance or budget error needs an account-control change rather than a different model name.
