# Keeyper
A cross-platform LLM API key manager — a clean, lightweight desktop app for managing API keys from different AI providers.
> 中文说明请见 `README.zh-CN.md`。
## Features
- **Provider management**: Add, edit, and delete AI providers (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic)
- **Key management**: Add multiple API keys per provider
- **Expiry tracking**: Set expiration dates and automatically mark expired keys
- **Quick copy**: One-click copy provider base URL and API keys
- **Model search**: Search models by name or ID in the model list
- **Model testing**: Test individual models to verify availability (supports OpenAI & Claude protocols)
- **Local storage**: All data stays on device, nothing is uploaded
- **Cross-platform**: Windows, macOS, and Linux
- **Lightweight**: Built with Tauri, around 10MB
## Screenshots
Below are two key views of the app so you can quickly understand the workflow.

The main dashboard shows providers, keys, and their status at a glance.

The model list helps you review and manage model availability per key/provider.
## Development Setup
### Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+
- npm
- Rust 1.88+ (for building Tauri)
#### Install Rust
```bash
# macOS
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
# Windows
# Download and run https://rustup.rs/
# Linux
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
```
### Install Dependencies
```bash
npm install
```
### Development Mode
```bash
# Start Tauri dev mode (will also start Vite)
npm run tauri:dev
```
### Build
```bash
# Build for current platform
npm run tauri:build
# Debug build (faster)
npm run tauri:build:debug
```
Build outputs are generated at `src-tauri/target/release/bundle/`.
### Linux builds
Automated releases only produce
macOS and Windows binaries, so Linux users must build locally if they need a native release.
1. Install the system dependencies listed under `src-tauri/tauri.conf.json` and the workflow (glib, GTK, WebKit2GTK, etc.).
2. Run `npm ci` followed by `npm run tauri:build`.
3. Grab the bundle from `src-tauri/target/release/bundle/`.

## Usage
### Add a Provider
1. Click the "Add Provider" button in the left sidebar
2. Enter the provider name (e.g. "OpenAI")
3. Enter the provider base URL (e.g. "https://api.openai.com")
### Add an API Key
1. Select a provider
2. Click the "Add Key" button in the top-right corner
3. Enter the API key (required)
4. Optional: add a name, note, and expiration date
### Key Status
- 🟢 Green: Key is valid
- 🟡 Yellow: Key expires soon (within 7 days)
- 🔴 Red: Key has expired
## Tech Stack
- **Tauri 2.0**: Lightweight cross-platform desktop framework
- **React**: UI framework
- **Vite**: Build tool
- **Tailwind CSS**: Styling
- **Zustand**: State management
- **TypeScript**: Type safety
- **Rust**: Backend logic
## Design Style
The app uses a Soft UI (New Soft UI) visual style featuring:
- Soft shadows and rounded corners
- Purple-themed palette
- Frosted glass effects
- Smooth transitions
- Strong accessibility
## Why Tauri?
Compared to Electron, Tauri offers:
- **Smaller size**: ~10MB vs Electron’s 150MB+
- **Lower memory usage**: Uses the system WebView
- **Better security**: Rust memory safety
- **Faster startup**: Lighter runtime
