# SambaNova

> Using SambaNova AI for open and hosted models with Upsonic

## Overview

SambaNova provides an OpenAI-compatible API for multiple model families. The default endpoint is `https://api.sambanova.ai/v1`; you can override it with `SAMBANOVA_BASE_URL` or pass `base_url` to `SambaNovaProvider`. Model profiles are matched by name prefix (e.g. `deepseek-*`, `llama-*`, `qwen*`, `mistral*`).

**Model Class:** `SambaNovaModel`

## Authentication

```bash theme={null}
export SAMBANOVA_API_KEY="..."
# Optional: custom base URL
export SAMBANOVA_BASE_URL="https://api.sambanova.ai/v1"
```

## Examples

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.sambanova import SambaNovaModel

model = SambaNovaModel(model_name="gpt-oss-120b")
agent = Agent(model=model)

task = Task("Hello, how are you?")
result = agent.do(task)
print(result)
```

## Model Settings

You can set model parameters in two ways: on the model or on the Agent.

**On the model:**

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.sambanova import SambaNovaModel, SambaNovaModelSettings

model = SambaNovaModel(
    model_name="gpt-oss-120b",
    settings=SambaNovaModelSettings(max_tokens=1024, temperature=0.7)
)
agent = Agent(model=model)
```

**On the Agent:**

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.sambanova import SambaNovaModelSettings

agent = Agent(
    model="sambanova/gpt-oss-120b",
    settings=SambaNovaModelSettings(max_tokens=1024, temperature=0.7)
)
```
