```

## Usage Examples

### Chat Completion

```elixir
{:ok, client} = Mistral.init("your_api_key")

{:ok, response} = Mistral.chat(client,
  model: "mistral-small-latest",
  messages: [
    %{role: "user", content: "Write a haiku about elixir"}
  ]
)
```

```elixir
{:ok, stream} = Mistral.chat(client,
  model: "mistral-small-latest",
  messages: [
    %{role: "user", content: "Tell me a short story"}
  ],
  stream: true
)

stream
|> Stream.each(fn chunk -> IO.write(chunk["choices"][0]["delta"]["content"] || "") end)
