Overview

Chat completions are the primary interface for text generation and conversational AI. Use the OpenAI-compatible API to access language models from leading providers.

​
Quick Start

curl https://api.compilelabs.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello! What can you do?"}
    ]
  }'

​
Using the OpenAI Python SDK

import openai

client = openai.OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://api.compilelabs.com/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
    ]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

​
Core Concepts

​
Messages

Messages are organized by role:
  • system: Instructions for the assistant’s behavior
  • user: User inputs and queries
  • assistant: Previous assistant responses

​
Parameters

  • model: The model to use (e.g., moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905)
  • messages: Array of message objects
  • temperature: Randomness (0-2, default 1)
  • max_tokens: Maximum response length
  • stream: Return streaming response

​
Streaming

Stream responses for better user experience: 
curl https://api.compilelabs.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Tell me a long story"}
    ],
    "stream": true
  }'

​
Multi-Turn Conversations

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "What's 2+2?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "2+2 equals 4."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "What about 3+3?"}
]

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905",
    messages=messages
)
