Quickstart

Mingo is a drop-in replacement for api.openai.com/v1. You can use the official OpenAI SDK — just change the base_url.

1. Get an API key

Sign in to the console, create a key, and top up with USD or crypto. No KYC, no card.

2. First request (curl)

curl https://mingo.mingles.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MINGO_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    "messages": [{"role":"user","content":"Hello!"}]
  }'

3. First request (Python)

pip install openai

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://mingo.mingles.ai/v1",
    api_key="sk-your-key",
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

4. Streaming

stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Stream me a poem."}],
    stream=True,
)
for chunk in stream:
    delta = chunk.choices[0].delta.content
    if delta:
        print(delta, end="", flush=True)

5. Tool-calling

Define your tools in standard OpenAI format — the gateway handles Hermes-style parsing for models that emit <tool_call> blocks.

tools = [{
    "type": "function",
    "function": {
        "name": "get_weather",
        "parameters": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {"city": {"type": "string"}},
            "required": ["city"],
        },
    },
}]

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Weather in Tokyo?"}],
    tools=tools,
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.tool_calls)
