# go-inference
Shared interface contract for text generation backends in the Core Go ecosystem. Defines `TextModel`, `Backend`, `Token`, `Message`, and associated configuration types that GPU-specific backends implement and consumers depend on. Zero external dependencies — stdlib only — and compiles on all platforms regardless of GPU availability. The backend registry supports automatic selection (Metal preferred on macOS, ROCm on Linux) and explicit pinning.
**Module**: `forge.lthn.ai/core/go-inference`
**Licence**: EUPL-1.2
**Language**: Go 1.25
## Quick Start
```go
import (
"forge.lthn.ai/core/go-inference"
_ "forge.lthn.ai/core/go-mlx" // registers "metal" backend on darwin/arm64
)
model, err := inference.LoadModel("/path/to/safetensors/model/")
defer model.Close()
for tok := range model.Generate(ctx, "Hello", inference.WithMaxTokens(256)) {
fmt.Print(tok.Text)
}
```
