codai-sdk — Python SDK
Official Python client for the codai AI gateway. Zero dependencies (stdlib only), Python 3.9+.
pip install codai-sdk
You need a codai API key. Get one at codai.ro. The import name stays
codai:
from codai import Codai
client = Codai(api_key="ck-...", session_id="my-project")
# Chat (OpenAI-compatible, smart-routed)
result = client.chat([{"role": "user", "content": "Explain asyncio.gather"}])
print(result.content)
print(result.routed_to) # which model actually served
# Streaming
for delta in client.chat_stream([{"role": "user", "content": "hi"}]):
print(delta, end="", flush=True)
# Server-side agent loop
run = client.agents_run("Find and summarize the TODOs in this codebase")
print(run.result)
# Feedback (improves routing for everyone)
client.feedback(result.request_id, 1)
codai extensions
| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
session_id |
Session memory + routing stickiness |
agent_mode=True |
Plan-and-execute loop (Pro+) |
compact="auto" |
Server-side context compaction |
best_of=0/3 |
Disable / force best-of-N ensembling |
Resource groups (0.2.0)
Every gateway operation is a method on the client, grouped exactly like the
TypeScript SDK (camelCase → snake_case). The 0.1.x helpers above still
work — client.chat([...]) and client.chat.completions.create({...}) are
the same call. Every method takes an optional ext={...} bag of X-Codai-*
headers (effort, thinking, thinking_budget, cache, no_task,
task_id, device, compact, best_of, share_token, … plus raw headers).

OpenAPI spec — TypedDicts such as ChatCompletionRequest, Task,
SessionEvent, CreateSessionShareResponse).
