The Gumloop Python SDK ships two clients:
  • Gumloop — the modern resource client used for chat completions, agents, sessions, MCP, skills, artifacts, and teams.
  • GumloopClient — the legacy flows client used to start saved automations and poll for outputs. Emits a DeprecationWarning at construction.
Pick Gumloop for new code. Use GumloopClient only if you need run_flow against an existing saved automation.

​
Installation

pip install gumloop

​
Chat completions

client.chat.completions.create(...) is an OpenAI-compatible chat surface that routes to every model Gumloop supports (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, OpenRouter routes). The streaming variant returns an iterator of ChatStreamChunk; the unary variant returns a ChatResult. 
from gumloop import Gumloop

client = Gumloop(access_token="your_access_token")

result = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Capital of Canada?"}],
)
print(result.choices[0].message.content)

​
Streaming

for chunk in client.chat.completions.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write a haiku about Toronto."}],
    stream=True,
):
    delta = chunk.choices[0].delta
    if delta.content:
        print(delta.content, end="", flush=True)

​
Structured output

Pass response_format={"type": "json_schema", "json_schema": {...}} to constrain the response to a JSON Schema. The SDK accepts the same shape the OpenAI API documents. 
result = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Return JSON with the capital of Canada."}],
    response_format={
        "type": "json_schema",
        "json_schema": {
            "name": "answer",
            "strict": True,
            "schema": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {"capital": {"type": "string"}},
                "required": ["capital"],
                "additionalProperties": False,
            },
        },
    },
)
print(result.choices[0].message.content)  # '{"capital":"Ottawa"}'

​
Image generation

Request an image-generation model (gpt-image-*, gemini-*-image-preview, dall-e-*) with modalities=["image", "text"]. The response carries image attachments on choices[0].message.images as data URLs. Streaming variants emit partial frames natively for OpenAI gpt-image models. 
result = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-image-1.5",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "A red maple leaf on white"}],
    modalities=["image", "text"],
    image_config={"size": "1024x1024"},
)
for image in result.choices[0].message.images:
    print(image.image_url.url[:64], "...")

​
Tool calling

Pass OpenAI-shape tool definitions; the SDK forwards them unchanged so any LLM that supports function calling can invoke them. 
result = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-5",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather in Toronto?"}],
    tools=[{
        "type": "function",
        "function": {
            "name": "get_weather",
            "description": "Get current weather for a city",
            "parameters": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {"city": {"type": "string"}},
                "required": ["city"],
            },
        },
    }],
)
for tc in result.choices[0].message.tool_calls or []:
    print(tc.function.name, tc.function.arguments)

​
Bring your own provider key

When the calling user has configured their own provider API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) in Gumloop, every completion they make is automatically charged at half the standard credit cost. No SDK change required — pricing is set server-side from the user’s account.

​
Flows (legacy client)

from gumloop import GumloopClient

# Initialize the client
client = GumloopClient(
    api_key="your_api_key",
    user_id="your_user_id"
)

# Run a workflow and wait for outputs
output = client.run_flow(
    flow_id="your_flow_id",
    inputs={
        "recipient": "example@email.com",
        "subject": "Hello",
        "body": "World"
    }
)

print(output)
Optionally add a project_id when creating the client if running automations in a workspace: 
from gumloop import GumloopClient

# Initialize the client
client = GumloopClient(
    api_key="your_api_key",
    user_id="your_user_id",
    project_id="your_project_id"
)
