Getting Started

Quick Start — Deploy Echo

$ docker pull axe/echo:latest

$ docker run -p 8090:8090 axe/echo

Listening on localhost:8090

Health check: /health

Python — Chat Completion

import httpx

resp = httpx.post(

  "https://echo.castle.local"

  "/v1/chat/completions",

  headers={

    "X-AXE-Key": key

  },

  json={

    "model": "edge-1",

    "messages": [...]

  }

)

Health Check

$ curl -s \

  https://echo.castle.local/health

{

  "status": "ok",

  "ollama": true,

  "models": 22

}
