Use AxForge with the OpenAI SDK
The official OpenAI SDKs take a base-URL option. Set it to
https://api.axforge.ai/v1, use your AxForge key, and the rest of
your code is unchanged — chat, streaming, tools, vision and embeddings all work
against the same client.
Python
# pip install openai — the official SDK, unchanged
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.axforge.ai/v1", # or set OPENAI_BASE_URL
api_key="YOUR_AXFORGE_KEY", # or set OPENAI_API_KEY
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
model="chat",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello from Stockholm"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
print(resp.usage) # token counts, for your own accounting
Streaming
stream = client.chat.completions.create(
model="chat", stream=True,
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Count to five"}],
)
for chunk in stream:
print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="")
Embeddings
e = client.embeddings.create(model="embeddings", input="a sentence to embed")
print(len(e.data[0].embedding)) # 1024
Node / TypeScript
// npm i openai
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
baseURL: "https://api.axforge.ai/v1", // or OPENAI_BASE_URL
apiKey: process.env.AXFORGE_API_KEY, // or OPENAI_API_KEY
});
const resp = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "chat",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
});
console.log(resp.choices[0].message.content);
Tip — use chat.completions. This SDK's
client.chat.completions.create hits the widely-supported
Chat Completions API and is the
path shown here. AxForge also serves the newer
Responses API
(client.responses.create → /v1/responses) natively, so
either works — see Codex & Claude
Code.
Model names
Use a stable role name like chat or embeddings, or
an exact version like qwen3.8-27b-nvfp4 — both resolve to the same
served model. Call client.models.list()
(GET /v1/models) for the live catalogue, or see
Models & pricing.
Keep your data in the EU
Every key is pinned to an EU region, and you can force one per request with a default header:
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.axforge.ai/v1", api_key="YOUR_AXFORGE_KEY",
default_headers={"x-axforge-region": "eu-se-1"},
)
Prompts and completions are processed in memory and never retained — see Regions & data handling.
