## Playground

Try out this model with Workers AI LLM Playground. It does not require any setup or authentication and an instant way to preview and test a model directly in the browser.

[Launch the LLM Playground](https://playground.ai.cloudflare.com/?model=@cf/openchat/openchat-3.5-0106)

## Usage

Worker - Streaming

```ts
export interface Env {
  AI: Ai;
}


export default {
  async fetch(request, env): Promise<Response> {


    const messages = [
      { role: "system", content: "You are a friendly assistant" },
      {
        role: "user",
        content: "What is the origin of the phrase Hello, World",
      },
    ];


    const stream = await env.AI.run("@cf/openchat/openchat-3.5-0106", {
      messages,
      stream: true,
    });


    return new Response(stream, {
      headers: { "content-type": "text/event-stream" },
    });
  },
} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>;
```

Worker

```ts
export interface Env {
  AI: Ai;
}


export default {
  async fetch(request, env): Promise<Response> {


    const messages = [
      { role: "system", content: "You are a friendly assistant" },
      {
        role: "user",
        content: "What is the origin of the phrase Hello, World",
      },
    ];
    const response = await env.AI.run("@cf/openchat/openchat-3.5-0106", { messages });


    return Response.json(response);
  },
} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>;
```

Python

```py
import os
import requests


ACCOUNT_ID = "your-account-id"
AUTH_TOKEN = os.environ.get("CLOUDFLARE_AUTH_TOKEN")


prompt = "Tell me all about PEP-8"
response = requests.post(
  f"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/ai/run/@cf/openchat/openchat-3.5-0106",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {AUTH_TOKEN}"},
    json={
      "messages": [
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a friendly assistant"},
        {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
      ]
    }
)
result = response.json()
print(result)
```

curl

```sh
curl https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/$CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID/ai/run/@cf/openchat/openchat-3.5-0106 \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLOUDFLARE_AUTH_TOKEN" \

## Parameters

\* indicates a required field

### Input

* `0` object

  * `prompt` string required min 1

    The input text prompt for the model to generate a response.

  * `lora` string

    Name of the LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) model to fine-tune the base model.

  * `response_format` object

    * `type` string

    * `json_schema`

  * `raw` boolean

    If true, a chat template is not applied and you must adhere to the specific model's expected formatting.

  * `stream` boolean

    If true, the response will be streamed back incrementally using SSE, Server Sent Events.

  * `max_tokens` integer default 256

    The maximum number of tokens to generate in the response.

  * `temperature` number default 0.6 min 0 max 5

    Controls the randomness of the output; higher values produce more random results.

  * `top_p` number min 0.001 max 1

    Adjusts the creativity of the AI's responses by controlling how many possible words it considers. Lower values make outputs more predictable; higher values allow for more varied and creative responses.

    Random seed for reproducibility of the generation.

  * `repetition_penalty` number min 0 max 2

    Penalty for repeated tokens; higher values discourage repetition.

  * `frequency_penalty` number min -2 max 2

    Decreases the likelihood of the model repeating the same lines verbatim.
