OpenPipe integration

OpenPipe output cap setup

OpenPipe workflows can grow expensive when requests loop or context gets large. Output caps keep long responses and agent loops from eating the budget. NexRelay keeps the first test small and reversible.

Why this setup works

A dedicated OpenPipe key keeps testing separate from production while NexRelay adds prepaid balance checks and request logs.

Recommended setup

Set a max output token limit before running any long prompt or coding task.

  • One key per OpenPipe workflow
  • Start with a small budget
  • Keep the model list narrow
  • Review the first log entry

What to verify

Check that the request stops within the configured output boundary.

FAQ
