Mistral Inference
Mistral Inference is a library for running Mistral large language models on a GPU, generating text from prompts with token streaming. It loads pretrained model weights from local disk or a remote registry into GPU memory, then produces output tokens one by one for real-time display in interactive applications.
The library supports multimodal prompts that accept image URLs alongside text, enabling visual description and reasoning. It includes content safety guardrails that scan generated text against predefined policies to block or flag policy violations. For structured interactions, it provides function-call prompt formatting so the model outputs a tool call instead of free text, and it offers code completion that fills in a missing middle segment given a prefix and suffix.
Beyond basic text generation, Mistral Inference provides an interactive chat interface for conversational loops, and it can be packaged into a Docker container for serving via a vLLM-compatible API endpoint. The library handles model loading from disk or registry, GPU-accelerated tensor computation, and streaming output through a generator interface.
