To configure the application for testing, you need to set up a `config.yml` file with the necessary API keys and model names for each provider you intend to use. The `CONFIG_PATH` environment variable should point to the location of this file. Here's an example of how to set up the `config.yml` file:

yaml
# config.yml
embeddings:
  provider: "openai" # or "mistral", "groq", "gemini", "nvidia"
  api_key: "your_openai_api_key"
  model: "text-embedding-3-small" # Optional

llm:
  provider: "openai" # or "mistral", "groq", "gemini", "nvidia"
  api_key: "your_openai_api_key"
  model: "gpt-o4" # Optional
  temperature: 0.1
  max_tokens: 1028
  reasonning_effort: "high"
  mcp_config: "./mcp_config.json" # Path to MCP configuration
  max_tool_calls_per_response: 3 # Optional limit on tool calls

config examples for the multiple providers are included in the config dir

MCP Integration Example

python

Claude Code Provider

AiCore supports routing completions through your Claude subscription via the Claude Agents Python SDK. No Anthropic API key is required — auth is handled entirely by the Claude Code CLI. This is exposed through two providers and an optional proxy server:

ComponentDescription
`claude_code`Local provider — runs the Claude Code CLI on the same machine as AiCore
`remote_claude_code`Remote provider — connects over HTTP to a `aicore-proxy-server` instance
`aicore-proxy-server`Proxy server — wraps the local CLI as a FastAPI SSE service, shareable over a network

Both providers share the same `acomplete()` / `complete()` interface and emit identical tool-call streaming events — you can switch between them with a single config change.


Local Provider (`claude_code`)

Runs `claude-agent-sdk` directly on the machine where AiCore is executing.

Prerequisites

bash
# 1. Install the Claude Code CLI (requires Node.js 18+)
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

# 2. Authenticate once
claude login

# 3. Install AiCore (the Python SDK is included automatically)
pip install core-for-ai

Quickstart

python
from aicore.llm import Llm
from aicore.llm.config import LlmConfig

config = LlmConfig(
    provider="claude_code",
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929",
    # No api_key needed — auth is handled by the CLI
)

llm = Llm.from_config(config)
response = await llm.acomplete("List all Python files in this project")
print(response)

Config File

yaml
# config/config_example_claude_code.yml
llm:
  provider: "claude_code"
  model: "claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929"

  # Optional
  permission_mode: "bypassPermissions"   # default — all tools allowed
  cwd: "/path/to/your/project"           # working directory for the CLI
  max_turns: 10                           # limit agentic turns
  mcp_config: "./mcp_config.json"   # pass through an MCP config file
  cli_path: "/usr/local/bin/claude"      # override if CLI is not on PATH
  allowed_tools:
    - "Read"
    - "Write"
    - "Bash"

Proxy Server (`aicore-proxy-server`)

The proxy server wraps `claude-agent-sdk` in a FastAPI SSE service so Claude Code can be accessed remotely over HTTP. Useful when:

  • The Claude Code CLI is authenticated on a different machine (e.g. a dev box, a server, or WSL)
  • You want to share a single Claude subscription across multiple AiCore clients
  • Your AiCore workload runs in a container or cloud environment that cannot run the CLI directly

Installation (server-side only)

bash
# Install AiCore with the claude-server extras
pip install core-for-ai[claude-server]

# Also install the Claude Code CLI and authenticate
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
claude login

The `[claude-server]` extra installs `fastapi`, `uvicorn[standard]`, and `python-dotenv`. `pyngrok` is optional and only needed for the ngrok tunnel mode.

Starting the Server

bash
# Minimal — binds to 127.0.0.1:8080, prompts for tunnel choice interactively
aicore-proxy-server

# Fully configured
aicore-proxy-server \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --port 8080 \
  --token my-secret-token \
  --tunnel none \
  --cwd /path/to/project \
  --log-level INFO

# Or via Python module
python -m aicore.scripts.claude_code_proxy_server --port 8080 --tunnel none

On first run the bearer token is auto-generated and printed. Set `CLAUDE_PROXY_TOKEN` in your environment or `.env` file to reuse it across restarts, or pass `--token` explicitly.

CLI Reference

FlagDefaultDescription
`--host``127.0.0.1`Bind address
`--port``8080`TCP port
`--token`*(auto-generated)*Bearer token; also reads `CLAUDE_PROXY_TOKEN` env var
`--tunnel`*(prompt)*`none` / `ngrok` / `cloudflare` / `ssh`
`--tunnel-port`same as `--port`Remote port for SSH tunnels
`--cwd`*(unrestricted)*Force a working directory for all Claude sessions
`--allowed-cwd-paths`*(any)*Whitelist of `cwd` values clients may request
`--log-level``INFO``DEBUG` / `INFO` / `WARNING` / `ERROR`
`--cors-origins``*`Allowed CORS origins

Tunnel Support

When `--tunnel` is omitted the server prompts interactively at startup.

ModeRequirementNotes
`none`Local network only
`ngrok``pip install pyngrok`Auth token is stored in the OS credential store on first run and loaded automatically on subsequent runs
`cloudflare``cloudflared` binary on PATHQuick tunnel, ephemeral URL
`ssh`SSH access to a VPSPrints the `ssh -R` command; no extra software needed

API Endpoints

MethodPathAuthDescription
`GET``/health`NoneServer status, uptime, Claude CLI version, active stream count
`GET``/capabilities`BearerSupported options and server-enforced defaults
`POST``/query`BearerStream a `claude-agent-sdk` query as SSE
`DELETE``/query/{session_id}`Bearer*(501 stub — reserved for future WebSocket-based cancellation)*

Remote Provider (`remote_claude_code`)

Connects AiCore to a running `aicore-proxy-server` over HTTP SSE. The remote provider reconstructs the SDK message stream locally, giving the same `acomplete()` / `complete()` interface as the local provider — no Claude Code CLI needed on the client side.

Prerequisites (client-side)

bash
pip install core-for-ai   # no CLI or claude-server extras required

The proxy server must be running and reachable before instantiating the provider (a `GET /health` check is performed automatically at startup, controllable via `skip_health_check`).

Quickstart

python
from aicore.llm import Llm
from aicore.llm.config import LlmConfig

config = LlmConfig(
    provider="remote_claude_code",
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929",
    base_url="http://your-proxy-host:8080",   # or a tunnel URL
    api_key="your_proxy_token",               # CLAUDE_PROXY_TOKEN from server startup
)

llm = Llm.from_config(config)
response = await llm.acomplete("Summarise this codebase")
print(response)

Config File

yaml
# config/config_example_remote_claude_code.yml
llm:
  provider: "remote_claude_code"
  model: "claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929"
  base_url: "http://your-proxy-host:8080"   # or the ngrok / cloudflare tunnel URL
  api_key: "your_proxy_token"               # CLAUDE_PROXY_TOKEN printed at server startup

  # Optional — forwarded to the proxy server
  permission_mode: "bypassPermissions"
  cwd: "/path/to/project"                   # must be in server's --allowed-cwd-paths
  max_turns: 10
  allowed_tools:
    - "Bash"
    - "Read"
    - "Write"

  # Skip the GET /health connectivity check at startup
  skip_health_check: false

Tool Call Streaming & Callbacks

Both `claude_code` and `remote_claude_code` emit identical tool-call events:

python
def on_tool_event(event: dict):
    if event["stage"] == "started":
        print(f"→ Calling tool: {event['tool_name']}")
    elif event["stage"] == "concluded":
        status = "✗" if event["is_error"] else "✓"
        print(f"{status} Tool finished: {event['tool_name']}")

llm.tool_callback = on_tool_event

response = await llm.acomplete("Find all TODO comments in the codebase")

`TOOL_CALL_START_TOKEN` / `TOOL_CALL_END_TOKEN` are also emitted via `stream_handler`, so any existing stream consumer works without changes.

> Note: `temperature`, `max_tokens`, and `api_key` are ignored by both providers — the Claude Code CLI controls model parameters internally. Cost is reported from `ResultMessage.total_cost_usd` rather than computed from a pricing table.


Usage

Language Models

You can use the language models to generate text completions. Below is an example of how to use the `MistralLlm` provider:

python
from aicore.llm.config import LlmConfig
from aicore.llm.providers import MistralLlm

config = LlmConfig(
    api_key="your_api_key",
    model="your_model_name",
    temperature=0.7,
    max_tokens=100
)

mistral_llm = MistralLlm.from_config(config)
response = mistral_llm.complete(prompt="Hello, how are you?")
print(response)

Loading from a Config File

To load configurations from a YAML file, set the `CONFIG_PATH` environment variable and use the `Config` class to load the configurations. Here is an example:

python
from aicore.config import Config
from aicore.llm import Llm
import os

if __name__ == "__main__":
    os.environ["CONFIG_PATH"] = "./config/config.yml"
    config = Config.from_yaml()
    llm = Llm.from_config(config.llm)
    llm.complete("Once upon a time, there was a")

Make sure your `config.yml` file is properly set up with the necessary configurations.

Observability

AiCore includes a comprehensive observability module that tracks:

  • Request/response metadata
  • Token usage (prompt, completion, total)
  • Latency metrics (response time, time-to-first-token)
  • Cost estimates (based on provider pricing)
  • Tool call statistics (for MCP integrations)

Dashboard Features

Observability Dashboard

Key metrics tracked:

  • Requests per minute
  • Average response time
  • Token usage trends
  • Error rates
  • Cost projections
python
from aicore.observability import ObservabilityDashboard

dashboard = ObservabilityDashboard(storage="observability_data.json")
dashboard.run_server(port=8050)

Advanced Usage

Reasoner Augmented Config

AiCore also contains native support to augment *traditional* Llms with *reasoning* capabilities by providing them with the thinking steps generated by an open-source reasoning capable model, allowing it to generate its answers in a Reasoning Augmented way.

This can be usefull in multiple scenarios, such as:

  • ensure your agentic systems still work with the propmts you have crafted for your favourite llms while augmenting them with reasoning steps
  • direct control for how long you want your reasoner to reason (via max_tokens param) and how creative it can be (reasoning temperature decoupled from generation temperature) without compromising generation settings

To leverage the reasoning augmentation just introduce one of the supported llm configs into the reasoner field and AiCore handles the rest

yaml
# config.yml
embeddings:
  provider: "openai" # or "mistral", "groq", "gemini", "nvidia"
  api_key: "your_openai_api_key"
  model: "your_openai_embedding_model" # Optional

llm:
  provider: "mistral" # or "openai", "groq", "gemini", "nvidia"
  api_key: "your_mistral_api_key"
  model: "mistral-small-latest" # Optional
  temperature: 0.6
  max_tokens: 2048
  reasoner:
    provider: "groq" # or openrouter or nvidia
    api_key: "your_groq_api_key"
    model: "deepseek-r1-distill-llama-70b" # or "deepseek/deepseek-r1:free" or "deepseek/deepseek-r1"
    temperature: 0.5
    max_tokens: 1024
