# Aimlapi Basic

> Run an AIMLAPI agent four ways: sync, async, and streaming variants of each.

> [!WARNING]
>
> This example uses `gpt-5.2`, but AIMLAPI's current GPT-5.2 model ID is `openai/gpt-5-2`. Apply the migration below before running. See [AIMLAPI's GPT-5.2 reference](https://docs.aimlapi.com/api-references/text-models-llm/openai/gpt-5.2).

```python basic.py theme={null}
