Provider-native keys are also picked up automatically. For example, to use
[Groq's](https://console.groq.com/) fast inference you can set `GROQ_API_KEY`
directly instead of `LLM_API_KEY`:

```bash
export STRIX_LLM="groq/llama-3.3-70b-versatile"
export GROQ_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

> [!NOTE]
> Strix automatically saves your configuration to `~/.strix/cli-config.json`, so you don't have to re-enter it on every run.
