Free AI API Keys for Agentic Coding

Usage Tips

• Do not subscribe to every service at once. Most free credits expire quickly. Test them one by one and move to the next when your current credits run out.
• Register, verify your account, and claim your credits. Follow each platform’s documentation to connect your coding tools.
• Keep your API keys private. Do not share them publicly. (save or star this gist for future update)
