from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(api_key="your-key", base_url="https://api.hunyuan.cloud.tencent.com/v1")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="hunyuan-pro", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "你好！"}])
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

cURL smoke test

Use this to verify endpoint, auth header, model name, response shape, and quota before adding SDK abstractions.

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HUNYUAN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "Hunyuan-Large",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello from yangmao.ai"}]
  }'
