When you sign in via langwatch login or open the LangWatch dashboard, you land on /me. The top of the page is your AI Tools Portal: a card grid of every tool your IT admin has published for you. Below the grid, your usage dashboard (spend vs. budget, requests, recent activity) is unchanged.
Pairs with: Personal IDE keys (the device-flow login the coding-assistant tiles trigger).
This page walks through what happens when you click each tile class.

Coding-assistant tiles

Examples: Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI. Click expands the tile inline with the setup walkthrough: Claude Code tile expanded, setup command + walkthrough

The first time you run the command:
  1. Your terminal prints a device-flow URL with a one-time code.
  2. Your browser opens. You sign in via your company SSO.
  3. The CLI receives a personal virtual key, persists it at ~/.langwatch/config.json (mode 0600), and exec’s the underlying tool (Claude Code in this case).
The personal virtual key is bound to your identity via JWT claims (organization_id, principal_id, personal: true), so every request through the gateway is attributed to you. Your monthly budget, governance policies, and audit trail all apply automatically. If your admin hasn’t published a default routing policy yet, the CLI returns a friendly 409 no_default_routing_policy error and points to the admin. See CLI debugging for the full error catalog.

Model-provider tiles

Examples: OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Gemini. Click expands the tile inline with a virtual-key creation form: Anthropic tile expanded, VK creation form before issuance

Type a label (anything that helps you identify the key, my-rag-app, weekend-experiment), click Generate, and the form replaces itself with the issued state: Anthropic tile issued, masked secret + reveal/copy + base URL

└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Important: the secret is shown once. Copy it now. If you lose it, generate a new key, there’s no recovery surface (this is by design; secrets are hashed at rest with a peppered HMAC and we never see the plaintext after issuance). The key inherits your admin’s routing policy automatically, so the same key works against whichever provider chain the admin has wired up for your org (OpenAI primary, Azure fallback, etc.). You don’t pick a provider; the policy does.

If issuance returns “routing_policy_has_no_providers” (HTTP 422)

The org-default routing policy exists but has zero providers bound, so the gateway would have nothing to forward to. The portal (and the CLI device-flow login) refuse to mint a key in that state, you’ll see an HTTP 422 response with an actionable hint rather than a green key that returns 504 on every call. Ask your admin to bind at least one provider in /settings/governance/routing-policies. Once a provider is bound, retry, issuance will succeed and your key works immediately.

When to create a project instead

If you’re building a team-shared application, a customer-facing chat, an internal RAG system, anything that’s not a one-developer experiment — create a project at /settings/projects and mint the virtual key there instead. Project keys aren’t bound to your identity, so the spend attributes to the project (and rolls up to your team) instead of to your personal monthly budget. The hint line on the tile is a one-line nudge in that direction; the flow itself is the existing project key flow at /settings/projects/<project>/api-keys.

External-tool tiles

External-tool tiles render markdown, your admin can include headings, lists, code blocks, and external links. External links open in a new tab with rel="noopener noreferrer" for safety. These tiles don’t generate keys or trigger logins. They’re informational
  • a link out to wherever your company tracks AI tool guidance (vendor portal, internal wiki, intranet page).

Empty state

If your admin hasn’t published the catalog yet, you’ll see:
No AI tools configured yet. Your IT team is still setting things up. Reach out to your org admin once tools are ready.
This is normal during a brand-new organization’s onboarding. Ask your admin to import the starter pack at /settings/governance/tool-catalog.
