OpenAI SDK

OpenAI SDK Integration

Optima Forge is a drop-in replacement for the OpenAI API. Change two lines — base URL and API key — and your existing OpenAI SDK code works with Forge's intelligent routing, memory, and security.

JavaScript / TypeScript

import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.FORGE_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "https://api.optima-forge.com/v1",
});

const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "auto", // or any specific model like "gpt-4o"
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "You are a helpful assistant." },
    { role: "user", content: "What is the meaning of life?" },
  ],
});

console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Python

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="forge_sk_your_key",
    base_url="https://api.optima-forge.com/v1",
)

completion = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="auto",
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is the meaning of life?"},
    ],
)

print(completion.choices[0].message.content)

Streaming

const stream = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "auto",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Tell me a story." }],
  stream: true,
});

for await (const chunk of stream) {
  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || "");
}

Function Calling

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "auto",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "What's the weather in Paris?" }],
  tools: [{
    type: "function",
    function: {
      name: "get_weather",
      description: "Get current weather for a location",
      parameters: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          location: { type: "string", description: "City name" }
        },
        required: ["location"],
      },
    },
  }],
});

Migration Checklist

• Replace OPENAI_API_KEY with FORGE_API_KEY
• Set baseURL / base_url to https://api.optima-forge.com/v1
• Optionally change model to "auto" for intelligent routing
• Optionally add forge extensions for memory, security, and caching
• All existing OpenAI SDK features (streaming, function calling, vision) work unchanged
