Mistral AI
Overview¶
Mistral.ai is a company that builds OS language models, but also offers a platform hosting those models. You can use Instructor with Mistral API by configuring the client as demonstrated below.
Please note that the larger Mistral models support native JSON object response_format, which is much more reliable than Instructor markdown-JSON fallback.
Inference feature compatibility: - tool calling - supported (Mistral-Small / Mistral-Medium / Mistral-Large) - native JSON object response_format - recommended (Mistral-Small / Mistral-Medium / Mistral-Large) - Instructor markdown-JSON fallback - fallback mode (Mistral 7B / Mixtral 8x7B)
Example¶
<?php
use Cognesy\Messages\Messages;
use Cognesy\Polyglot\Inference\Inference;
use Cognesy\Utils\Str;
require 'examples/boot.php';
$answer = Inference::using('mistral')
->with(
messages: Messages::fromString('What is the capital of France'),
options: ['max_tokens' => 256]
)
->get();
echo "USER: What is capital of France\n";
echo "ASSISTANT: $answer\n";
assert(Str::contains($answer, 'Paris'));
?>
