Prerequisites

• Node.js (>=20.0) and npm installed on your machine
• An OpenAI API key for interacting with OpenAI's services
• Optional dependencies (if running the example from source code):
  • Bun for running unit tests & examples
  • Pnpm for package management

Quick Start (No Installation Required)

export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY # Set your OpenAI API key

# Run in one-shot mode (default)
npx -y @aigne/example-workflow-group-chat

# Run in interactive chat mode
npx -y @aigne/example-workflow-group-chat --chat

# Use pipeline input
echo "Write a short story about space exploration" | npx -y @aigne/example-workflow-group-chat

Installation

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/AIGNE-io/aigne-framework

Install Dependencies

cd aigne-framework/examples/workflow-group-chat

pnpm install

Setup Environment Variables

Setup your OpenAI API key in the .env.local file:

OPENAI_API_KEY="" # Set your OpenAI API key here

Using Different Models

You can use different AI models by setting the MODEL environment variable along with the corresponding API key. The framework supports multiple providers:

• OpenAI: MODEL="openai:gpt-4.1" with OPENAI_API_KEY
• Anthropic: MODEL="anthropic:claude-3-7-sonnet-latest" with ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
• Google Gemini: MODEL="gemini:gemini-2.0-flash" with GEMINI_API_KEY
• AWS Bedrock: MODEL="bedrock:us.amazon.nova-premier-v1:0" with AWS credentials
• DeepSeek: MODEL="deepseek:deepseek-chat" with DEEPSEEK_API_KEY
• OpenRouter: MODEL="openrouter:openai/gpt-4o" with OPEN_ROUTER_API_KEY
• xAI: MODEL="xai:grok-2-latest" with XAI_API_KEY
• Ollama: MODEL="ollama:llama3.2" with OLLAMA_DEFAULT_BASE_URL

For detailed configuration examples, please refer to the .env.local.example file in this directory.

Run the Example

pnpm start # Run in one-shot mode (default)

# Run in interactive chat mode
pnpm start -- --chat

# Use pipeline input
echo "Write a short story about space exploration" | pnpm start

Run Options

The example supports the following command-line parameters:

Parameter	Description	Default
--chat	Run in interactive chat mode	Disabled (one-shot mode)
--model <provider[:model]>	AI model to use in format 'provider[:model]' where model is optional. Examples: 'openai' or 'openai:gpt-4o-mini'	openai
--temperature <value>	Temperature for model generation	Provider default
--top-p <value>	Top-p sampling value	Provider default
--presence-penalty <value>	Presence penalty value	Provider default
--frequency-penalty <value>	Frequency penalty value	Provider default
--log-level <level>	Set logging level (ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE)	INFO
--input, -i <input>	Specify input directly	None

Examples

# Run in chat mode (interactive)
