Developer docs
The CoralMesh API is OpenAI-compatible. If your code already speaks to api.openai.com, point it at https://api.coralmesh.io and you’re done.
1. Get an API key
Sign in, go to Account, and copy api_key. Pass it as a Bearer token — standard OpenAI conventions apply.
2. cURL
curl https://api.coralmesh.io/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer cm_live_..." \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "qwen2.5:3b",
"messages": [{"role":"user","content":"Hi from cURL"}]
}'3. Python (official OpenAI SDK)
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.coralmesh.io/v1",
api_key="cm_live_...",
)
stream = client.chat.completions.create(
model="qwen2.5:3b",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "ping"}],
stream=True,
)
for chunk in stream:
print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="", flush=True)4. Node / TypeScript (official OpenAI SDK)
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
baseURL: "https://api.coralmesh.io/v1",
apiKey: process.env.CORALMESH_KEY,
});
const r = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "qwen2.5:3b",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "hi" }],
stream: true,
});
for await (const part of r) {
process.stdout.write(part.choices[0]?.delta?.content ?? "");
}5. .NET / C# (community OpenAI client)
using OpenAI;
var client = new OpenAIClient(
new OpenAIClientOptions {
Endpoint = new Uri("https://api.coralmesh.io/v1")
},
"cm_live_..."
);
var resp = await client.GetChatClient("qwen2.5:3b")
.CompleteChatAsync(new[] { new UserChatMessage("hi from .NET") });
Console.WriteLine(resp.Value.Content[0].Text);Endpoints
POST /v1/chat/completions— OpenAI-compatible chat, with SSE streaming.GET /v1/models— list of network-blessed models with their per-token price.GET /v1/balance— your current credit balance, broken down by source.GET /v1/stats— public network counters (peer count, models, 24h volume).
Native SDKs (coming soon)
Thin wrappers on top of the OpenAI SDKs adding balance(), peers_online(), and pinned-peer helpers. Targets: PyPI coralmesh, npm @coralmesh/sdk, NuGet CoralMesh. Subscribe via the waitlist on the landing page to be told when the first one ships.
