sdkrouter 0.1.28

Unified SDK for AI services with OpenAI compatibility

SDKRouter

Unified Python SDK for AI services. Access 300+ LLM models, vision, audio, image generation, search, translation, and more through a single interface.

Installation

pip install sdkrouter

Quick Start

from sdkrouter import SDKRouter, Model

client = SDKRouter(api_key="your-api-key")

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model=Model.cheap(),
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Model Routing

Smart model selection with IDE autocomplete:

from sdkrouter import Model

Model.cheap()                    # Lowest cost
Model.smart()                    # Highest quality
Model.balanced()                 # Best value
Model.fast()                     # Fastest

# With capabilities
Model.cheap(vision=True)         # + vision
Model.smart(tools=True)          # + function calling
Model.balanced(json=True)        # + JSON mode

# Categories
Model.smart(code=True)           # Coding
Model.cheap(reasoning=True)      # Problem solving

Async Support

from sdkrouter import AsyncSDKRouter, Model
import asyncio

async def main():
    client = AsyncSDKRouter(api_key="your-api-key")

    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        model=Model.cheap(),
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
    )

    # Parallel requests
    results = await asyncio.gather(
        client.vision.analyze(image_url="..."),
        client.audio.speech(input="Hello!"),
    )

asyncio.run(main())

Audio Example

from sdkrouter import SDKRouter, AudioModel

client = SDKRouter()

# Text-to-Speech
response = client.audio.speech(
    input="Hello!",
    model=AudioModel.cheap(),
    voice="nova",
)
Path("output.mp3").write_bytes(response.audio_bytes)

# Speech-to-Text
result = client.audio.transcribe(file=audio_bytes)
print(result.text)

Deepgram Streaming

from sdkrouter import AsyncSDKRouter
from sdkrouter.tools.audio.stt import DeepgramConfig

sdk = AsyncSDKRouter()

config = DeepgramConfig(
    model="nova-3",
    endpointing=300,   # VAD: silence threshold (ms)
    vad_events=True,   # Enable VAD events
)

async with sdk.audio.stt.stream_deepgram(config) as session:
    await session.send(audio_chunk)
    async for segment in session.transcripts():
        print(segment.text)

Configuration

# Environment variables (auto-loaded)
# SDKROUTER_API_KEY
# SDKROUTER_LLM_URL
# SDKROUTER_API_URL
# SDKROUTER_AUDIO_URL

client = SDKRouter(
    api_key="your-key",
    timeout=60.0,
    max_retries=3,
)

Prompt Caching & Metrics

For Anthropic Claude models, SDKRouter automatically applies cache_control breakpoints. Cache metrics are returned in response.usage.prompt_tokens_details:

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5",
    messages=[...],  # long conversation
)

details = response.usage.prompt_tokens_details
if details:
    print("Cache read tokens: ", details.cached_tokens)      # billed at 10%
    print("Cache write tokens:", details.cache_write_tokens) # billed at 125%

No client-side changes needed — caching is transparent and automatic.
