# Modelflare Chat Demo

> **Status:** Gradio runtime needs Hugging Face **PRO** (or Team) hardware quota for org Spaces.
> Until then this Space stays a placeholder. Use the free path below.

## Use Modelflare today (no PRO)

1. [Getting Started collection](https://huggingface.co/collections/Modelflare/modelflare-getting-started)
2. [Start landing](https://huggingface.co/spaces/Modelflare/start)
3. [OpenAI SDK one-line guide](https://huggingface.co/spaces/Modelflare/openai-sdk)
4. Console: [modelflare.dev](https://modelflare.dev/?utm_source=huggingface&utm_medium=space&utm_campaign=chat)

## After PRO is enabled

1. Create an API key in the [Modelflare console](https://modelflare.dev/).
2. Space → **Settings** → **Variables and secrets** → add secret `MODELFLARE_API_KEY` (use a rate-limited demo group).
3. Ensure `app.py` / `requirements.txt` are present, then restart the Space.

Point OpenAI SDKs at `https://modelflare.dev/v1` with the same key. Docs: [docs.modelflare.dev](https://docs.modelflare.dev/).

Model dropdown ids are examples — use a model name enabled on your Modelflare group.
