mistral-go-sdk

The most complete Go client for the Mistral AI API.

Why This SDK?

Zero dependencies. The entire SDK — including tests — uses only the Go standard library. No go.sum, no transitive dependency tree to audit, no version conflicts, no supply chain risk.

Full API coverage. 116 methods across every Mistral endpoint — including Connectors, Audio Speech/Voices, Conversations, Agents CRUD, Libraries, OCR, Observability, Fine-tuning, and Batch Jobs. No other Go SDK covers Conversations, Connectors, or Observability.

Typed streaming. A generic pull-based Stream[T] iterator — no channels, no goroutines, no leaks. Just Next() / Current() / Err() / Close().

Forward-compatible. Unknown types (UnknownEntry, UnknownEvent, UnknownMessage, UnknownChunk, UnknownAgentTool) capture raw JSON instead of returning errors. When Mistral ships a new message role or event type, your code keeps running — it doesn't panic.

Hand-written, not generated. Idiomatic Go with sealed interfaces, discriminated unions, and functional options — not a Speakeasy/OpenAPI auto-gen dump with any everywhere.

Test-driven. 193 tests with race detection clean. Every endpoint tested against mock servers; integration tests against the real API.

Quick Start

Chat Completion

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"

    mistral "somegit.dev/vikingowl/mistral-go-sdk"
    "somegit.dev/vikingowl/mistral-go-sdk/chat"
)

func main() {
    client := mistral.NewClient("sk-your-api-key")

    resp, err := client.ChatComplete(context.Background(), &chat.CompletionRequest{
        Model: "mistral-small-latest",
        Messages: []chat.Message{
            &chat.UserMessage{Content: chat.TextContent("What is the capital of France?")},
        },
    })
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    fmt.Println(resp.Choices[0].Message.Content)
}

Streaming

stream, err := client.ChatCompleteStream(ctx, &chat.CompletionRequest{
    Model: "mistral-small-latest",
    Messages: []chat.Message{
        &chat.UserMessage{Content: chat.TextContent("Tell me a joke.")},
    },
})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
defer stream.Close()

for stream.Next() {
    chunk := stream.Current()
    if len(chunk.Choices) > 0 {
        fmt.Print(chunk.Choices[0].Delta.Content)
    }
}
if err := stream.Err(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

Tool Calling

resp, err := client.ChatComplete(ctx, &chat.CompletionRequest{
    Model: "mistral-small-latest",
    Messages: []chat.Message{
        &chat.UserMessage{Content: chat.TextContent("What's the weather in Paris?")},
    },
    Tools: []chat.Tool{{
        Type: "function",
        Function: chat.Function{
            Name:        "get_weather",
            Description: "Get weather for a city",
            Parameters: map[string]any{
                "type": "object",
                "properties": map[string]any{
                    "city": map[string]any{"type": "string"},
                },
                "required": []string{"city"},
            },
        },
    }},
})

Conversations

import "somegit.dev/vikingowl/mistral-go-sdk/conversation"

resp, err := client.StartConversation(ctx, &conversation.StartRequest{
    AgentID: "ag-your-agent-id",
    Inputs:  conversation.TextInputs("Hello, agent!"),
})

// Stream events
stream, err := client.AppendConversationStream(ctx, resp.ConversationID, &conversation.AppendRequest{
    Inputs: conversation.TextInputs("Follow-up question"),
})
defer stream.Close()
for stream.Next() {
    event := stream.Current()
    // handle typed events
}
