About the project
The official Python library for the OpenAI API: sync and async clients, type definitions for all request params and responses, and authentication via API key or workload identity.
Useful for
- Send a model request via the Responses API or Chat Completions from a Python script
- Set up workload identity authentication in Kubernetes or cloud instead of an API key
- Use AsyncOpenAI for asynchronous OpenAI API calls in a service

Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- 1 star so far today, about 4 expected by the end of the day.
- About 12 forks a day — people are taking the code.
- Recent forks include notable developers: @craighckby-stack (293 followers).

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
