API Usage
Use the following code examples to integrate with our API:
import OpenAI from 'openai';
if (!process.env.WAVESPEED_API_KEY) throw new Error('Set WAVESPEED_API_KEY');
const client = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.WAVESPEED_API_KEY,
baseURL: 'https://llm.wavespeed.ai/v1',

});
try {
const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: 'qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b',
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }],
});
const body = response as typeof response & { error?: { message?: string } };
if (body.error) throw new Error(body.error.message || 'LLM generation failed');
console.log(response.choices[0]?.message?.content ?? '');
} catch (error) {
console.error('LLM request failed:', error);
process.exitCode = 1;
