Together AI
Use Together AI models with docker-agent.
Overview
Together AI is one of the largest hosts of open models, serving Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM and others through an OpenAI-compatible API. docker-agent includes built-in support for Together AI as an alias provider.
Setup
- Create an API key from the Together AI settings.
-
Set the environment variable:
export TOGETHER_API_KEY=your-api-key
Usage
Inline Syntax
The simplest way to use Together AI:
agents:
root:

Available Models
Together AI serves a broad, changing catalog of open-weight models. Check the Together AI model library for current model IDs, context limits, and pricing.
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-Turbo |
Llama 3.3 70B, general-purpose chat and tool calling |
Qwen/Qwen3-235B-A22B-Instruct-2507-tput |
Qwen3 235B mixture-of-experts instruct model |
deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3 |
DeepSeek-V3, strong coding and reasoning |
Model IDs are case-sensitive and must be passed exactly as the catalogue lists them.
How It Works
Together AI is implemented as a built-in alias in docker-agent:
- API Type: OpenAI-compatible (
openai_chatcompletions) - Base URL:
https://api.together.xyz/v1 - Token Variable:
TOGETHER_API_KEY
Because Together AI fronts open-weight models whose chat templates may reject more than one leading system message, docker-agent coalesces its per-source system messages into a single one for this provider.
Example: Code Assistant
agents:
coder:
model: together/Qwen/Qwen3-235B-A22B-Instruct-2507-tput
