README
AI SDK CPP
The AI SDK CPP is a modern C++ toolkit designed to help you build AI-powered applications with popular model providers like OpenAI and Anthropic. It provides a unified, easy-to-use API that abstracts away the complexity of different provider implementations.
Motivation
C++ developers have long lacked a first-class, convenient way to interact with modern AI services like OpenAI, Anthropic, and others. AI SDK CPP bridges this gap by providing:
- Unified API: Work with multiple AI providers through a single, consistent interface
- Modern C++: Built with C++20 features for clean, expressive code
- Minimal Dependencies: Minimal external dependencies for easy integration
Installation
You will need a C++20 compatible compiler and CMake 3.16+ installed on your development machine.
Usage
Core API
The AI SDK CPP Core module provides a unified API to interact with model providers like OpenAI and Anthropic.
OpenAI Integration
#include
#include
#include
int main() {
// Ensure OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable is set
auto client = ai::openai::create_client();
ai::GenerateOptions options(ai::openai::models::kGpt56,
"Why is the sky blue?");
options.system = "You are a friendly assistant!";
auto result = client.generate_text(options);
if (result) {
std::cout << result->text << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}
Anthropic Integration
#include
#include
#include
int main() {
// Ensure ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable is set
auto client = ai::anthropic::create_client();
ai::GenerateOptions options(ai::anthropic::models::kClaudeSonnet5,
"Explain quantum computing in simple terms.");
options.system = "You are a helpful assistant.";
auto result = client.generate_text(options);
if (result) {
