Cloudflare also released a general-purpose proxy that also supports non-OpenAI APIs. It seems that proxies also are becoming abstraction layers. Cloudflare allows you to pass the requests to other (non-OpenAI) models as well. I'm sure others will follow soon with similar abstractions.

I'm not sure what the best approach is, but it would be valuable for developers to have support for these abstraction layers. Because sooner or later, a cheap open source model will likely be a better and more affordable alternative to OpenAI. And if it's as easy as changing the settings of the proxy to switch to an alternative model (and no changes in the app are needed, as I understand it), that would be a huge plus.

Realistically, I'm not planning to spend much more time adding features to CleverBird, but I'd be happy to consider a pull request that implements this.
