ERNIE Model Integration

Complete guide for adding Baidu ERNIE 5.0 (Qianfan) models to Clawdbot.

Overview

ERNIE 5.0 is Baidu's latest large language model with deep thinking capabilities:

• ERNIE 5.0 (ernie-5.0-thinking-preview) - Advanced reasoning model with 128K context window via OpenAI-compatible API

Prerequisites

• Clawdbot installed and configured
• API key from Baidu Qianfan platform (see Getting API Key section)

Getting API Key

Baidu Qianfan Platform

1. Visit https://console.bce.baidu.com/qianfan/ais/console/applicationConsole/application
2. Register a Baidu Cloud account if you don't have one
3. Navigate to the API Keys section
4. Create a new API key
5. Copy the key (format: bce-v3/ALTAK-...)

Note: The API key uses Baidu's BCE authentication format.

Integration Steps

Step 1: Set environment variable

Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc for persistence:

export ERNIE_API_KEY="bce-v3/ALTAK-your-key-here"
source ~/.zshrc  # or source ~/.bashrc

Security note: Never commit API keys to version control. Rotate keys regularly on the Qianfan console.

Step 2: Add provider configuration

Edit your clawdbot.json config:

{
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "model": {
        "primary": "ernie/ernie-5.0-thinking-preview"
      },
      "models": {
        "ernie/ernie-5.0-thinking-preview": {
          "alias": "ernie-5.0"
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "models": {
    "mode": "merge",
    "providers": {
      "ernie": {
        "baseUrl": "https://qianfan.baidubce.com/v2",
        "apiKey": "${ERNIE_API_KEY}",
        "api": "openai-completions",
        "models": [
          {
            "id": "ernie-5.0-thinking-preview",
            "name": "ERNIE 5.0",
            "contextWindow": 128000,
            "maxTokens": 65536
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Restart Clawdbot

clawdbot gateway restart

Step 4: Verify integration

clawdbot models list

You should see ERNIE models in the list.

Step 5: Use the model

Set as default:

clawdbot models set ernie/ernie-5.0-thinking-preview

Or use model alias in chat:

/model ernie-5.0

Model Parameters

Troubleshooting

Model not appearing in list

Check config syntax:

clawdbot gateway config.get | grep -A 20 ernie

Verify API key is set:

echo $ERNIE_API_KEY

Authentication errors

• Verify API key format is bce-v3/ALTAK-...
• Check key is valid on Qianfan console
• Ensure correct base URL: https://qianfan.baidubce.com/v2

Connection issues

Test API endpoint directly:

curl -X POST "https://qianfan.baidubce.com/v2/chat/completions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ERNIE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "ernie-5.0-thinking-preview", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "test"}]}'

Rate limit errors

ERNIE 5.0 has the following rate limits:

• RPM: 60 requests per minute
• TPM: 150,000 tokens per minute

If you hit rate limits, reduce request frequency or apply for higher quotas on Qianfan console.

Model Recommendations

• ERNIE 5.0 (ernie/ernie-5.0-thinking-preview) - Best for complex reasoning tasks, deep analysis, and tasks requiring extensive thinking
