Siliconflow

AISDK provides first-class support for Siliconflow with fully typed model APIs. Model capabilities are enforced at compile time using Rust's type system. This prevents model capability mismatches and guarantees the selected model is valid for the task (e.g. tool calling).

Installation

Enable the Siliconflow provider feature:

cargo add aisdk --features siliconflow

This installs AISDK with the Siliconflow provider enabled. Once you have enabled the Siliconflow provider, you can use all aisdk features with it.

Create a Provider Instance

To create a provider instance, call Siliconflow::model_name(), where model_name is the Siliconflow model you want to use. Model names are exposed as snake-case methods.

use aisdk::providers::Siliconflow;

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::bytedance_seed_seed_oss_36b_instruct();

This initializes the provider with:

Model: "ByteDance-Seed/Seed-OSS-36B-Instruct"
API key from environment (if set with SILICONFLOW_API_KEY)
Siliconflow's default base URL (https://api.siliconflow.com/v1)

Basic Text Generation

Example using LanguageModelRequest for text generation.

use aisdk::{
    core::LanguageModelRequest,
    providers::Siliconflow,
};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {

    let siliconflow = Siliconflow::bytedance_seed_seed_oss_36b_instruct();

    let response = LanguageModelRequest::builder()
        .model(siliconflow)
        .prompt("Write a short poem about Rust.")
        .build()
        .generate_text()
        .await?;

    println!("Response text: {:?}", response.text());
    Ok(())
}

Provider Settings

You can customize provider configuration using Siliconflow::builder()

API Key

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<BytedanceSeedSeedOss36bInstruct>::builder()
    .api_key("your-api-key")
    .build()?;

If not specified, AISDK uses the SILICONFLOW_API_KEY environment variable.

Base URL

Useful when routing through a proxy, gateway, or self-hosted compatible endpoint.

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<BytedanceSeedSeedOss36bInstruct>::builder()
    .base_url("https://api.siliconflow.com/v1")
    .build()?;

Path (Full URL Override)

Use .path(...) to override the full request URL instead of only the base URL.

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<BytedanceSeedSeedOss36bInstruct>::builder()
    .path("https://full-url.example/v1/chat/completions")
    .build()?;

Provider Name

For logging, analytics, and observability.

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<BytedanceSeedSeedOss36bInstruct>::builder()
    .provider_name("Siliconflow")
    .build()?;

Full Custom Configuration Example

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<BytedanceSeedSeedOss36bInstruct>::builder()
    .api_key("your-api-key")
    .base_url("https://api.siliconflow.com/v1")
    .path("https://full-url.example/v1/chat/completions")
    .provider_name("Siliconflow")
    .build()?;

Dynamic Model Selection

For runtime model selection (e.g., loading models from config files), use DynamicModel:

Using model_name() Method with Default Settings

use aisdk::providers::Siliconflow;

// Specify model as a string at runtime
let siliconflow = Siliconflow::model_name("ByteDance-Seed/Seed-OSS-36B-Instruct");

Using Builder Pattern with Custom Settings

use aisdk::{
    core::DynamicModel,
    providers::Siliconflow,
};

let siliconflow = Siliconflow::<DynamicModel>::builder()
	.model_name("ByteDance-Seed/Seed-OSS-36B-Instruct")
	.api_key("your-api-key")
	.base_url("https://api.siliconflow.com/v1")
	.path("https://full-url.example/v1/chat/completions")
	.provider_name("Siliconflow")
	.build()?;

Warning: When using DynamicModel, model capabilities are not validated at compile time. This means there's no guarantee the model supports requested features (e.g., tool calls, structured output). For compile-time safety, use the typed methods like Siliconflow::bytedance_seed_seed_oss_36b_instruct().
