How do I set temperature or top_p in Python?

Pass temperature (0 to 2) or top_p (above 0, up to 1). Lower temperature makes replies more predictable; higher makes them more varied.

import os
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.gateway.clatterlabs.xyz/v1",
    api_key=os.environ["CLATTER_API_KEY"],
    default_headers={"X-Clatter-Account": os.environ["CLATTER_ACCOUNT_ID"]},
)

r = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="supercosmos-flash",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Suggest a name for a coffee shop."}],
    temperature=1.2,
)
print(r.choices[0].message.content)

Change one of the two, not both. For extraction or code, keep temperature low.

The client setup above (base URL, key and the X-Clatter-Account header) is the same in every Python example; see Set up the Python SDK. Full parameter list: Create a chat completion.

Good to know#

• Retry only 429 and 5xx errors, with backoff; honour Retry-After when it's sent. Which errors to retry
• Keep keys on your server, never in a browser or mobile app. Why
• Every response has an X-Request-Id; log it so a request can be found later. Why log it
