Grafana AI SDK for Go

Hacker News •

The Grafana AI SDK for Go enables developers to integrate language models, stream responses, and execute tools directly from Go applications. It offers a unified API for model calls, streaming, tool usage, structured output, and multi-step agents across various providers, including Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, and OpenAI.

Designed for compatibility with Vercel's AI SDK, the Go SDK allows seamless integration with React frontends. Go endpoints can stream Server-Sent Events (SSE) directly to React hooks like `useChat`. This compatibility means existing AI SDK React frontends can be reused, or TypeScript backends can be replaced with Go without requiring protocol adapters.

Key features include streaming and generating text, compatibility with React hooks, composable tools that allow models to call Go functions, and structured output generation. It supports multiple providers and offers production controls such as timeouts, fallback mechanisms, logging, and Prometheus metrics. The SDK can be easily installed and used with a quick-start example demonstrating a model call to Anthropic's Claude Sonnet.
