Raycast to OpenAI API

• Setup
• Usage
• Available Models

This project provides a relay server that allows you to use Raycast AI models through an OpenAI-compatible API interface, implemented in Go with Gin framework.

Deployment

Prerequisites

• Go 1.24.2

Setup

1. Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/missuo/raycast2api
cd raycast2api

2. Set environment variables:

# Set Raycast Bearer Token
export RAYCAST_BEARER_TOKEN=your_raycast_bearer_token

# Optional: Set API Key for authentication
export API_KEY=your_optional_api_key

# Optional: Set custom port (default is 8080)
export PORT=8080

About the RAYCAST_BEARER_TOKEN, you can refer to the How to get the Raycast Bearer Token section.

# Download dependencies
go mod tidy

# Build the application
go build

# Run the application
./raycast2api

Docker Deployment

# Create a directory for the Docker Compose file
mkdir raycast2api
cd raycast2api

# Download the Docker Compose file
wget -O compose.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/missuo/raycast2api/refs/heads/main/compose.yaml

# Edit the compose.yaml file
nano compose.yaml

# Run Docker container
docker compose up -d

Usage

Once deployed, you can use the server as an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint:

http://localhost:8080/v1

API Endpoints

Endpoint	Method	Description
/v1/models	GET	List available models
/v1/chat/completions	POST	Create a chat completion
/v1/refresh-models	GET	Manually refresh model cache
/health	GET	Health check endpoint

Authentication

If you've set an API_KEY, include it in your requests:

Authorization: Bearer your-api-key

Use with Cursor

Unlike the previous version, this Go implementation works seamlessly with Cursor:

1. Use the generated endpoint (e.g., http://localhost:8080/v1)
2. No additional configuration needed
3. Manually add the models you want to use to the Models Name section in Cursor

Available Models

The following model list was updated on June 5, 2025, at 10:01 PM EDT.

Some models in the following list still indicate that the model does not exist, even when sending the exact same request as the Raycast App. We suspect that the server has implemented authentication for the signature.

Configuration

Configuration is managed through environment variables:

Variable	Description	Default
RAYCAST_BEARER_TOKEN	Required Raycast API token	None
API_KEY	Optional authentication key	None
PORT	Server listening port	8080

How to get the Raycast Bearer Token

1. Open Proxyman (or any other HTTP packet capture tool), then open Raycast and try to ask a question.

2. In Proxyman, find any request sent by Raycast with an Authorization header.

3. The token is the part after 'Bearer ', e.g., 'Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxx', where 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx' is your RAYCAST_BEARER_TOKEN.

Special Thanks

Thanks to Charles for developing the original raycast-relay and providing the initial implementation.
