Quick Reference

Minimal Agent

const answer = await LLMist.createAgent()
  .withModel('haiku')
  .askAndCollect('Hello!');

Agent with Gadgets

const answer = await LLMist.createAgent()
  .withModel('sonnet')
  .withSystem('You are helpful')
  .withGadgets(MyGadget)
  .askAndCollect('Do something');

Streaming Events

await LLMist.createAgent()
  .withModel('flash')
  .withGadgets(MyGadget)
  .askWith('Do something', {
    onText: (text) => console.log(text),
    onGadgetResult: (r) => console.log(r.result),
  });
