Mistral

Configure Mistral as a custom endpoint in LibreChat.

Mistral provides its own family of chat and embedding models, used in LibreChat as a custom endpoint.

Get an API key

Create a key from the Mistral console. Add it to your .env file:

MISTRAL_API_KEY=your-api-key

Configuration

Add the endpoint under endpoints.custom in your librechat.yaml:

    - name: "Mistral"
      apiKey: "${MISTRAL_API_KEY}"
      baseURL: "https://api.mistral.ai/v1"
      models:
        default: ["mistral-tiny", "mistral-small", "mistral-medium", "mistral-large-latest"]
        fetch: true
      titleConvo: true
      titleModel: "mistral-tiny"
      modelDisplayLabel: "Mistral"
      dropParams: ["stop", "user", "frequency_penalty", "presence_penalty"]

Notes

  • The Mistral API only allows a system message at the top of the messages payload.
  • The API is strict with unrecognized parameters and its errors are not descriptive (often just "no body"). Using dropParams to drop user, frequency_penalty, and presence_penalty is required.
  • stop is no longer a default parameter, so it does not need to be in dropParams unless you want to prevent users from configuring it.
  • Fetching the model list is supported, but be careful not to select embedding models for chat.
