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',
  timeout: 120_000,
  maxRetries: 0,
});

try {
  const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
    model: 'reflection/beam-1.0-501b-a23b',
    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;
