Quick Start

from confamnode import ConfamNode

client = ConfamNode(api_key="confam-xxx")

ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-speed",
    messages="How you dey?"
)

print(ansa.text)
print(f"Cost: ₦{ansa.cost.naira:.6f}")

---

Streaming

from confamnode import ConfamNode

client = ConfamNode(api_key="confam-xxx")

stream = client.gist(
    model="confam-speed",
    messages="Wetin be the capital of 9ja?",
    stream=True
)

# Print tokens as they arrive
for yarn in stream:
    content = yarn.choices[0].delta.content
    if content:
        print(content, end="", flush=True)

# Get full Ansa after stream completes
ansa = stream.get_ansa()
print(f"\nModel: {ansa.model}")
print(f"Tokens: {ansa.usage.total_tokens}")
print(f"Cost: ₦{ansa.cost.naira:.6f}")
if ansa.cost.dollars:
    print(f"${ansa.cost.dollars:.8f}")
print(f"ID: {ansa.id}")

The Ansa Response Object

Every gist() call returns an Ansa object:

ansa = client.gist(model="confam-speed", messages="How you dey?")

# Response
ansa.text               # response text
ansa.model              # model that served the request
ansa.reasoning          # thinking trace (reasoning models only)
ansa.tools              # tool calls (agent models only)
ansa.citations          # citations (search models only)
ansa.finish_reason      # why generation stopped

# Usage
ansa.usage.prompt_tokens      # input tokens used (includes system message)
ansa.usage.completion_tokens  # output tokens used
ansa.usage.total_tokens       # total tokens used

# Cost — Naira first
ansa.cost.naira         # total cost in Naira ← primary
ansa.cost.naira_input   # input cost in Naira
ansa.cost.naira_output  # output cost in Naira
ansa.cost.dollars       # cost in USD (if available)

# Identity
ansa.is_local                # True — runs on Nigerian hardware
ansa.is_ngn_data_residency   # True — data never leaves Nigeria
ansa.id                      # unique request ID (confam-xxxx-xxxx)

# Response metadata
ansa.raw                     # dict with id, finish_reason, usage
ansa.raw["id"]               # provider response ID
ansa.raw["finish_reason"]    # why generation stopped
ansa.raw["usage"]            # prompt and completion token counts

Note: prompt_tokens includes any system message tokens. This is standard behaviour across all LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.).

System Message

ConfamNode adds a default system message to every request giving the model a Nigerian identity and context. This is standard behaviour across all LLM providers and is counted in prompt_tokens.

# Use ConfamNode default identity (default)
ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-speed",
    messages="Who are you?"
)
# "I am ConfamNode, Nigeria's AI inference gateway..."

# Override with your own system message
ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-speed",
    messages="Who are you?",
    system="You are a helpful customer service agent for Konga."
)

# Disable system message entirely
ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-speed",
    messages="Who you be?",
    system=None
)

---

Reasoning Models

Enable extended thinking for complex problems:

ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-reasoning",
    messages="One trader buy goods for ₦50,000 sell am for ₦75,000. After e pay ₦5,000 for transport and ₦3,000 for market, wetin be the real profit? Show how you calculate am.",
    allowed_openai_params=["reasoning_effort"],
    reasoning_effort={"effort": "low", "summary": "detailed"}
    # effort: "low", "medium", "high", or "xhigh"
    # summary: "detailed" or "concise"
)

print(ansa.reasoning)   # thinking trace
print(ansa.text)        # final answer

Also available on confam-deep-reasoning for more complex multi-step problems:

ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-deep-reasoning",
    messages="Analyse the financial risk of a Nigerian fintech expanding to Ghana...",
    allowed_openai_params=["reasoning_effort"],
    reasoning_effort={"effort": "high", "summary": "detailed"}
)

print(ansa.reasoning)   # full thinking trace
print(ansa.text)        # final analysis

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)

Best models for RAG

Model	Why	Context
confam-intelligence	General RAG, reliable, long context	1M tokens
confam-code	Code search, documentation RAG	1M tokens
confam-deep-reasoning	Complex RAG, multi-hop reasoning	1M tokens

---

Data Residency

Nigerian businesses handling sensitive data can use local models that run entirely on Nigerian hardware — data is never transmitted abroad:

ansa = client.gist(
    model="confam-nano",
    messages="Analyse this sensitive document..."
)

print(ansa.is_local)                 # True — runs on Nigerian hardware
print(ansa.is_ngn_data_residency)    # True — data never leaves Nigeria
print(ansa.text)

Ideal for:

• Nigerian banks and fintechs
• Healthcare companies
• Law firms
• Government agencies
• Any business with strict data residency requirements

---

Environment Variable

export CONFAMNODE_API_KEY="confam-xxx"

# No need to pass api_key explicitly
client = ConfamNode()

---

Custom Base URL

For enterprise clients running ConfamNode on private infrastructure:

client = ConfamNode(
    api_key="confam-xxx",
    base_url="http://your-private-server:4000/v1"
)

---

Error Handling

from confamnode import (
    ConfamAuthError,
    ConfamRateLimitError,
    ConfamModelError,
    ConfamNodeError
)

try:
    ansa = client.gist(
        model="confam-speed",
        messages="How you dey?"
    )
except ConfamAuthError:
    print("Check your API key")
except ConfamRateLimitError:
    print("You don reach your limit. Contact [e-mail]")
except ConfamModelError:
    print("Invalid model name")
except ConfamNodeError as e:
    print(f"Something went wrong: {e}")
