groq-hello-world
Create a minimal working Groq chat completion example. Use when starting a new Groq integration, testing your setup after installing the SDK, or learning the basic Groq API request/response pattern before building something larger. Trigger with phrases like "groq hello world", "groq example", "groq quick start", "simple groq code".
Why this skill is useful
Provides specific Groq API request patterns and error handling that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.
What it needs
Requires groq-sdk installed locally. Requires groq account access. About 2k tokens when loaded. Last updated 2026-08-07. 2,604 stars on the source repository.
What this skill does
Groq Hello World Overview Build a minimal chat completion with Groq's LPU inference API. Groq uses an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so the API shape is familiar -- but responses arrive 10-50x faster than GPU-based providers. This skill gets you from an installed SDK to a working, verified request; deeper variants (streaming, Python, model selection) live in references/. Prerequisites groq-sdk installed (npm install groq-sdk) GROQAPIKEY environment variable set Completed groq-install-auth setup Instructions Use Write to create the example file, then run it to confirm your key and SDK work. Start with the single basic request below; reach for the reference variants only once this succeeds. Step 1: Basic Chat Completion (TypeScript) Step 2: Go deeper (references) Once Step 1 returns text, extend it with the moved-out variants: Streaming tokens as they generate, plus the Python equivalent and a model-selection cheat sheet — references/examples.md. Full model catalog (IDs, params, context, speed) and the complete response interface — references/models-and-response.md. Output A successful run prints the assistant's reply text followed by the total token count, e.g.: The underlying API returns an OpenAI-compatible ChatCompletion object: the text is at choices[0].message.content, and usage carries token counts plus four Groq-specific timing fields (queuetime, prompttime, completiontime, totaltime). Full response shape: references/models-and-response.md. …
How to use it
