# M101: No providers configured

> M101 is returned when the authenticated harness has no providers configured.

## What you saw

```text theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
[🦚 Manifest M101] You're connected, but no providers are set up yet. Add one here: https://app.manifest.build/...
See https://manifest.build/llm-gateway/docs/errors/M101
```

## Why it happened

You'll usually see this on a fresh harness. Your key works, but no provider credentials are connected yet (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, an Ollama instance, anything).

## How to fix it

1. Open the dashboard link in the error message.
2. The page offers one card per connection type. Pick **Usage-based** to paste an API key, or **Subscriptions** to reuse a plan you already pay for. OpenRouter or OpenAI with an API key is the fastest path.
3. Retry the request.
