The probe makes a real model request. A successful result does not enable custom-model publication or conversation execution, which remain unavailable.
Candidate settings
Use Together AI’s current compatibility reference for the base URL and model naming. Model IDs use provider-specific names, commonly including a namespace. Do not substitute a display label or assume that similarly named models have the same capabilities.
Test one configuration
1
Review model access
Confirm that the intended chat model is available, that the key can access it, and that a test request is authorized. The provider’s image, embedding, or speech endpoints are separate from this text probe.
2
Configure the candidate
In Custom LLM, enter the base URL without
/chat/completions, the model ID, and the secret reference. Environment references use production during the probe. Follow the field workflow.3
Inspect the response
Use Test connection and record a safe result. Threetone requests streaming Chat Completions with
stream_options.include_usage: true and requires assistant text in the stream. Model-specific parameter or response differences can still cause the probe to fail.Frequently asked questions
Does provider support for tools verify agent tool execution?
Does provider support for tools verify agent tool execution?
No. This connection probe verifies a text response. Tool schemas, tool authorization, and runtime execution require their own supported tests.
Can I omit the namespace from Model ID?
Can I omit the namespace from Model ID?
Use the exact identifier supplied by Together AI for the model. A shorter display label may not resolve to a callable model.
