go-inference

Shared interface contract for text generation backends in the Core Go ecosystem. Defines TextModel, Backend, Token, Message, and associated configuration types that GPU-specific backends implement and consumers depend on. Zero external dependencies — stdlib only — and compiles on all platforms regardless of GPU availability. The backend registry supports automatic selection (Metal preferred on macOS, ROCm on Linux) and explicit pinning.

Quick Start

import (
    "dappco.re/go/core/inference"
    _ "dappco.re/go/core/mlx"   // registers "metal" backend on darwin/arm64
)

model, err := inference.LoadModel("/path/to/safetensors/model/")
defer model.Close()

for tok := range model.Generate(ctx, "Hello", inference.WithMaxTokens(256)) {
    fmt.Print(tok.Text)
}
