3Use OpenAI's chat completion API with [`std/openai`](https://www.val.town/v/std/openai). This integration enables access to OpenAI's language models without needing to acquire API keys.

5For free Val Town users, [all calls are sent to `gpt-4o-mini`](https://www.val.town/v/std/openaiproxy?v=12#L85).
65If these limits are too low, let us know! You can also get around the limitation by using your own keys:
66
671. Create your own API key on [OpenAI's website](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys)
682. Create an [environment variable](https://www.val.town/settings/environment-variables?adding=true) named `OPENAI_API_KEY`
693. Use the `OpenAI` client from `npm:openai`:

1# Reload in new tabs when your vals change
2
3When you're working on an HTML HTTP val in a new tab, it's annoying to have to manually reload the tab on every save. In the Val Town editor, you can hit cmd+enter, but there's nothing like that for a val in a new tab because Val Town doesn't control that new tab (like we control the iframe in the browser preview). However, you control that HTML via the fetch handler you're writing, so you can add a script that polls the Val Town API for the current version number of your val, and reload itself if it detects a new version. This val has a collection of helpers to help you do just that.
