Mistral AI
Use Mistral AI with Blazen — construct the MistralProvider and call complete().
Mistral AI is an OpenAI-compatible LLM provider. Construct it like any other Blazen provider — build a list of ChatMessages, call complete() (or stream()), and read back a typed ModelResponse.
At a glance
| Provider id | mistral |
| Base URL | https://api.mistral.ai/v1 |
| Default model | mistral-large-latest |
| API key env var | MISTRAL_API_KEY |
| Auth | Authorization: Bearer <key> |
Set MISTRAL_API_KEY in the environment and Blazen reads it automatically, or pass the key explicitly when you construct the provider.

Usage
Construct the provider and call complete(). The default model is mistral-large-latest; override it with with_model / model when you need a different one.
use blazen_llm::{Model, ModelRequest, ChatMessage};
use blazen_provider_mistral::MistralProvider;
// Reads MISTRAL_API_KEY from the environment, or pass the key to `new`.
let model = MistralProvider::new(std::env::var("MISTRAL_API_KEY")?);
let resp = model
.complete(ModelRequest::new(vec![ChatMessage::user("Hello")]))
.await?;
println!("{}", resp.content.unwrap_or_default());
from blazen import MistralProvider, ProviderOptions, ChatMessage
# Omit the api_key to read MISTRAL_API_KEY from the environment.
model = MistralProvider(options=ProviderOptions(api_key="..."))
resp = await model.complete([ChatMessage.user("Hello")])
print(resp.content)
import { MistralProvider, ChatMessage } from "blazen";
// Omit apiKey to read MISTRAL_API_KEY from the environment.
const model = MistralProvider.create({ apiKey: "..." });
const resp = await model.complete([ChatMessage.user("Hello")]);
console.log(resp.content);
Streaming
async for chunk in model.stream([ChatMessage.user("Count to five")]):
print(chunk.delta, end="")
await model.stream([ChatMessage.user("Count to five")], (chunk) => {
if (chunk.delta) process.stdout.write(chunk.delta);
});
