Lumina API

The Lumina API is the planned developer interface for interacting with Lumina language models — a simple, reliable, developer-friendly way to integrate AI-powered text generation into applications.

Not yet available. Everything on this page — endpoints, auth, models — is a design draft and subject to change before the first stable release.

Planned Features

The first public release of the Lumina API is expected to support:

Conversational AIText generationQuestion answeringText summarizationWriting assistanceInstruction followingContext-aware conversationsStructured JSON responses (where supported)Streaming responses (planned)

Additional capabilities may be introduced in future versions.

Intended Use Cases

Lumina is intended for applications such as:

AI chat assistants
Customer support tools
Knowledge assistants
Educational applications
Writing and editing assistance
Content summarization
Brainstorming and idea generation
Productivity applications
General programming-related questions
API integration into websites, desktop applications, and mobile apps

Not Intended For

Lumina is not designed for:

Medical diagnosis or treatment
Legal advice
Financial or investment advice
Emergency response
Safety-critical systems
Autonomous decision-making without human oversight
Activities that violate applicable laws or regulations

Developers are responsible for evaluating whether Lumina is appropriate for their specific use case.

Endpoints

Planned endpoints include:

•Chat Completions
•Text Generation
•Models
•Embeddings

Authentication

Authentication is expected to use API keys sent in the Authorization header.

Header

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Example Request

The example illustrates the intended API design and is not currently functional.

Request

POST /v1/chat
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Body

{
  "model": "parallax-lumina-v1",
  "messages": [
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "Explain quantum computing in simple terms."
    }
  ]
}

Example response

{
  "id": "chatcmpl-example",
  "object": "chat.completion",
  "model": "parallax-lumina-v1",
  "choices": [
    {
      "message": {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": "Quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can represent multiple states at once. This allows certain problems to be solved much more efficiently than with traditional computers."
      }
    }
  ]
}

Safety

The API is planned to include safeguards intended to:

Refuse clearly harmful or illegal requests where appropriate
Reduce prompt injection risks for supported tool integrations
Help protect sensitive information in supported workflows

No AI system is perfect, and developers should implement additional safeguards appropriate for their applications.

Limitations

As an AI language model, Lumina may:

Produce inaccurate or outdated information
Generate incomplete responses
Misinterpret ambiguous prompts
Produce inconsistent answers for complex reasoning tasks

Developers should validate important outputs before relying on them.

Development roadmap

General Availability

Future releases may introduce additional capabilities, performance improvements, and expanded model support.

Feedback

Community feedback will play an important role in shaping future versions of Lumina. Suggestions, bug reports, and feature requests will be welcomed once the project becomes publicly available.
