chenki
Self-hostable LLM client for restaurant tech. A thin Python library that talks to any OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions endpoint, with restaurant-domain helpers (menu Q&A, dish classification, order parsing) built on top.
By default it points at brianchenhao-chenki-llm.hf.space — a free Hugging Face Space running Qwen 2.5 1.5B Instruct (Q4_K_M) behind llama.cpp. Self-hosters can deploy their own Space using the included server/Dockerfile.
Status
chenki is under active development. v0.0.1 reserves the PyPI name; v0.1.0 is the first functional release.
Install
pip install chenki
