    Parameters

    Input

    • Prompt object

      • prompt string min 1 max 131072

        The input text prompt for the model to generate a response.

      • raw boolean

        If true, a chat template is not applied and you must adhere to the specific model's expected formatting.

      • stream boolean

        If true, the response will be streamed back incrementally using SSE, Server Sent Events.

      • max_tokens integer default 256

        The maximum number of tokens to generate in the response.

      • temperature number default 0.6 min 0 max 5

        Controls the randomness of the output; higher values produce more random results.

      • top_p number min 0 max 2

        Adjusts the creativity of the AI's responses by controlling how many possible words it considers. Lower values make outputs more predictable; higher values allow for more varied and creative responses.

      • top_k integer min 1 max 50

        Limits the AI to choose from the top 'k' most probable words. Lower values make responses more focused; higher values introduce more variety and potential surprises.

      • seed integer min 1 max 9999999999

        Random seed for reproducibility of the generation.

      • repetition_penalty number min 0 max 2

        Penalty for repeated tokens; higher values discourage repetition.

      • frequency_penalty number min 0 max 2

        Decreases the likelihood of the model repeating the same lines verbatim.

      • presence_penalty number min 0 max 2

        Increases the likelihood of the model introducing new topics.

      • lora string
