How i can add OpenAI API key? I don't see this in any configs/setting

To add the OpenAI API key, you need to set an environment variable named WURST_OPENAI_KEY. Wurst doesn't currently have a setting or config file for this feature.

Here's how you can do it:

Generate an API key here.
In Windows, navigate to System Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables.
(Alternatively, you can bring up the same dialog by typing path into the Windows search bar.)
In the Environment Variables window, create a new entry. Name it WURST_OPENAI_KEY and set your API key as its value.
Restart your computer to apply the changes.

Your client should then be able to access the API key. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any further questions.

Wurst_User You can set environment variables on Debian-like Linux distributions in several ways. Here are two common methods:

Setting Environment Variables in /etc/environment:

This file is used to set system-wide environment variables. You can add a new variable by just editing the file.
- Open /etc/environment in a text editor. For instance, using nano:
```
sudo nano /etc/environment
```
- Add your environment variable in the form NAME=VALUE. For example:
```
WURST_OPENAI_KEY=sk-1a2b3c4d5e6f7g8h9i0j
```
- Save and close the file. The changes will take effect at the next login.
Setting Environment Variables in Shell Initialization Files:

You can also add environment variables in shell initialization files such as ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile, although I'm not 100% sure that those would be visible to Wurst.
- Open ~/.bashrc in a text editor. For instance, using nano:
```
nano ~/.bashrc
```
- Add your environment variable in the form export NAME=VALUE. For example:
```
export WURST_OPENAI_KEY=sk-1a2b3c4d5e6f7g8h9i0j
```
- Save and close the file. The changes will take effect at the next login or you can use the source command to apply the changes immediately:
```
source ~/.bashrc
```

Please note that these changes will apply to all users on the system if you add them to /etc/environment or ~/.bashrc of the root user. If you want to apply them only to a specific user, add them to that user's ~/.bashrc file.
