Claude as a Janitor AI Proxy: What It Costs per Message, the Two Routes, and Anthropic's Own Caveat
Claude is never free on Janitor AI, but it is cheaper than most people think: at OpenRouter's listed $2 per million input tokens for Claude Sonnet 5, a 20,000-token roleplay message costs about four cents. The exact values for the OpenRouter route and for Anthropic's own OpenAI-compatibility layer, Anthropic's note that the layer is for testing rather than production, the usage policy that governs what Claude will write, and why no proxy of any kind changes it.

Janitor AI Error 429: What the Limit Is, Which Backend Set It, and What Actually Lifts It
A 429 on Janitor AI is a rate limit set by the backend behind your proxy: OpenRouter's 20 a minute and 50 a day, Gemini's per-project caps, DeepSeek's per-account concurrency. What each one means, the fixes that work, and the three that never do: a second account, a second key, and a different IP.
Janitor AI Network Error and 401 Unauthorized: The Two Errors That Happen Before the Model Answers
A network error on Janitor AI means the request never reached a model; a 401 means it reached one that rejected the key. Janitor's own guide traces most network errors to a wrong URL or an unrefreshed page. The exact URLs for OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Gemini, Claude and Mistral to compare character by character, a two-line curl test, the key mistakes behind 401, and the one network-error case a network proxy actually fixes.

'No endpoints found' on Janitor AI is OpenRouter saying nobody is serving the model you chose, or that your own settings forbid the providers that would.

KoboldAI as a Janitor AI Proxy: A Local Model, No Key, No Token Cost, and Why the Tunnel Is the Hard Part
KoboldCpp runs an open-weights model on your own machine and exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so Janitor AI can use it with no API key and no per-token cost. The catch is that Janitor runs in the cloud and your model runs on localhost, so the two cannot meet without a tunnel. How the local route works, why it is the most private option, and the honest limits: your hardware, and the tunnel.
Mistral as a Janitor AI Proxy: The Direct API, the OpenRouter Route, and the $10 of Monthly Credits on Mistral's Free Plan
Mistral's models speak the OpenAI format natively, so they drop into Janitor AI's proxy field with no compatibility layer: https://api.mistral.ai/v1/chat/completions and a key from Mistral's console. What Mistral Large and Small cost per message at listed prices, the free plan on Mistral's pricing page that lists $10 a month in API credits, the OpenRouter route with today's ids, and the limits and refusals no proxy changes.
