export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.maximoai.co/v1
export OPENAI_MODEL=maximo-pandora-3.6-nano

Or create a .env file in your project directory:

CLAUDE_CODE_USE_OPENAI=1
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-maximo-api-key
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.maximoai.co/v1
OPENAI_MODEL=maximo-pandora-3.6-nano

2. Run Maximo Syntax CLI
