Would you accept official xAI API support for Grok models?

[obdagli]

Hi, I wanted to check maintainer preference before preparing a PR.

Would you accept support for the official xAI API in CLIProxyAPI, so Grok models can be used through xAI console/API access?

This is about official xAI API support only.
It is not about grok.com web-session / cookie-based reverse proxy support.

Why I'm asking first

Before implementing anything, I want to confirm whether xAI/Grok support is:

• intentionally out of scope, or
• something you would accept if kept small and maintainable

From reading the codebase, CLIProxyAPI already has:

• config-driven API-key providers
• OpenAI-compatible upstream support
• provider-specific executors
• model registration and alias/exclusion handling

So official xAI API support looks like it may fit the project, but I wanted to ask first instead of making assumptions.

Proposed scope for a first PR

If this is acceptable, I would keep the first contribution minimal:

• official xAI API only
• API key + base URL configuration
• Grok model exposure in /v1/models
• streaming + non-streaming support
• mock-based tests
• docs/config example

Explicitly out of scope for this first step:

• grok.com web-session support
• cookie / Cloudflare clearance handling
• browser-fingerprint / uTLS transport workarounds

Maintainer preference

If you are open to this, would you prefer:

1. a dedicated native xai provider, or
2. keeping this under existing openai-compatibility support with improved docs/tests/examples?

If the idea is acceptable, I can prepare the smallest PR in the direction you prefer.

我也有这样的需求，目前可以使用兼容的 openai 接口，但是不能生成图片和视频，希望能支持
grok 使用的是 /v1/Image/generation 接口与传统 openai 接口有出入，newapi 接入也是有这问题

Same demand，We hope the author will update the version to include the Xai model as soon as possible.

Today or tomorrow I will try to create a small pull request so you can try it out.
