The Infrastructure of Uncensored Intelligence

The uncensored AI API: Shannon models with no refusals and no filters, served from our own GPUs. OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible — drop in the SDK you already use, one key, streaming, tool calling and reasoning on every endpoint.

21 uncensored models 256K context window from $0.50/1M 3 compatible APIs 3 networks: TLS, Tor, I2P

Models & pricing

PER 1M TOKENS

9 Shannon tiers and 12 hosted open-weight models behind one endpoint, with streaming and tool calling on every id. Usage is billed against your token quota, valued at $5 per million quota tokens. Model ids are stable — pin them in production; GET /v1/models returns this same table.

Hosted open-weight models 262,144-token context on every id; input and output billed separately; each id accepts what the model it imitates accepts

Sruthú

Server-sent events, OpenAI chunk format. Thinking models stream reasoning_content deltas before the answer; the final chunk carries exact usage.

Python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://api.shannon-ai.com/v1"
)

# Enable streaming for real-time responses
# Thinking models stream reasoning_content first, then content
stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="GLM-5.2-3BIT-REAP",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Write a short poem about AI"}
    ],
    stream=True
)

for chunk in stream:
    delta = chunk.choices[0].delta
    if getattr(delta, "reasoning_content", None):
        print(delta.reasoning_content, end="", flush=True)  # thinking stream
    if delta.content:
        print(delta.content, end="", flush=True)

Responses API

NEW

POST /v1/responses — the OpenAI Responses dialect: instructions, input items, function_call / function_call_output for tool loops, reasoning summaries as output items. Same models, same key.

Python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", base_url="https://api.shannon-ai.com/v1")

response = client.responses.create(
    model="shannon-3",
    instructions="You are a concise assistant.",
    input="Summarize the three-way handshake in two sentences.",
    reasoning={"effort": "low"},
)
print(response.output_text)

# Tool loop: function_call items come back in response.output; answer them
# with function_call_output items on the next call.

Streaming emits response.created, reasoning_summary_text.delta, output_text.delta, function_call_arguments.delta and response.completed; a failed generation ends with response.failed. Non-streaming is the default.

Reasoning effort

NEW

Every thinking model streams its trace as reasoning_content deltas (or a thinking block) before the answer, and finish_reason: length tells you the answer hit max_tokens. The depth knob — reasoning_effort on /v1/chat/completions (off, low, medium, high), reasoning.effort on /v1/responses, thinking.budget_tokens on /v1/messages — is read by the hosted open-weight models; the Shannon tiers accept it and choose their own depth. GET /v1/models reports reasoning_effort per model.

Python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", base_url="https://api.shannon-ai.com/v1")

# reasoning_effort: off | low | medium | high. Read by the hosted open-weight
# models, where it sets how long the solve pass thinks. Shannon tiers accept the
# field and pick their own depth -- GET /v1/models reports which is which.
stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="GLM-5.2-3BIT-REAP",
    reasoning_effort="medium",
    stream=True,
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Is 221 prime?"}],
)
for chunk in stream:
    delta = chunk.choices[0].delta
    if getattr(delta, "reasoning_content", None):
        print(delta.reasoning_content, end="", flush=True)   # thinking
    if delta.content:
        print(delta.content, end="", flush=True)             # answer

ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.shannon-ai.com ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-YOUR_KEY claude

Codex CLI

OpenAI's open-source coding agent. Uses the Responses API for multi-turn tool use, file editing, and shell commands — all routed through Shannon.

OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.shannon-ai.com/v1 OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-YOUR_KEY codex

Claude Code

# Or run a one-shot command
claude -p "Explain this codebase"

# Claude Code will use Shannon's Anthropic-compatible API
# for all AI operations: reading files, editing code,
