# OpenAI

> Auto-track all OpenAI API calls

## Installation

```bash theme={null}
pip install meshai-sdk[openai]
```

## Usage

```python theme={null}
from meshai import MeshAI
from meshai.integrations.openai import wrap_openai
import openai

# Initialize MeshAI
client = MeshAI(api_key="msh_...", agent_name="my-agent")
client.register(framework="custom", model_provider="openai")

# Wrap the OpenAI client
oai = wrap_openai(openai.OpenAI(), meshai=client)

# Use as normal, all calls auto-tracked
response = oai.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)

# Model, tokens, and cost are captured automatically
# Even when switching models:
response = oai.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o-mini",  # Different model, tracked separately
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
```

## What's Tracked

For each API call, MeshAI captures:

* **Model name** (extracted from the response, not hardcoded)
* **Input tokens** (prompt\_tokens)
* **Output tokens** (completion\_tokens)
* **Request type** (chat.completions)

## Alternative: Proxy (Zero-Code)

If you prefer no SDK at all:

```bash theme={null}
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://proxy.meshai.dev/v1/openai/k/msh_YOUR_PROXY_KEY
```

All OpenAI calls are automatically routed through MeshAI.
