## API Configuration

By default, episodic-memory uses your Claude Code authentication for summarization.

To route summarization through a custom Anthropic-compatible endpoint or override the model:

```bash
# Override model (default: haiku)
export EPISODIC_MEMORY_API_MODEL=opus

# Override fallback model on error (default: sonnet)
export EPISODIC_MEMORY_API_MODEL_FALLBACK=sonnet

# Route through custom endpoint
export EPISODIC_MEMORY_API_BASE_URL=https://your-endpoint.com/api/anthropic
export EPISODIC_MEMORY_API_TOKEN=your-token

# Increase timeout for slow endpoints (milliseconds)
export EPISODIC_MEMORY_API_TIMEOUT_MS=3000000
```

These settings only affect episodic-memory's summarization calls, not your interactive Claude sessions.

### What's Affected

| Component | Uses custom config? |
|-----------|---------------------|
| Summarization | Yes (up to 10 calls/sync) |
| Embeddings | No (local Transformers.js) |
| Search | No (local SQLite) |
| MCP tools | No |
