LLmHub API Temperature Parameter

Docs

Official API documentation for LLmHub API (api.llmhub.dev)

The default value of temperature is 1.0.

We recommend users to set the temperature according to their use case listed below:

USE CASE	TEMPERATURE
Coding / Math	0.0
Data Cleaning / Data Analysis	1.0
General Conversation	1.3
Translation	1.3
Creative Writing / Poetry	1.5

Examples

Python

# Example of setting temperature for coding tasks
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="automatic",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write a function to sort an array"}],
    temperature=0.0  # Lower temperature for deterministic code generation
)

Node.js

// Example of setting temperature for creative writing
const completion = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  model: "automatic",
  messages: [{"role": "user", "content": "Write a poem about autumn"}],
  temperature: 1.5  # Higher temperature for more creative outputs
});

Why Temperature Matters

Lower temperature values (0.0-0.7) produce more deterministic and focused responses, making them ideal for tasks requiring precision like coding and mathematical calculations.

Higher temperature values (1.0-2.0) introduce more randomness and creativity, making them better suited for creative writing, brainstorming, and conversational applications.
