Prompting tips for Hunyuan A13B Instruct
- State the goal, not every step. Hunyuan A13B Instruct reasons internally — give it the objective, constraints and success criteria and let it plan the approach; over-scripting each step tends to lower quality. Turn effort up for hard problems.
- Constrain JSON with a schema. Use
response_format/ structured outputs rather than "reply in JSON" to get valid, parseable objects every time. - Cheap enough to batch. Great for high-volume classification, extraction and drafting — template the prompt, batch requests, and validate outputs programmatically.
Tips are derived from Hunyuan A13B Instruct's actual capabilities — context window, tool & JSON support, modality and price tier — not generic advice.

Migrating to Hunyuan A13B Instruct
Coming from OpenAI or another gateway? On an OpenAI-compatible setup the only changes are base_url → https://api.datallmlab.com/v1 and model → tencent/hunyuan-a13b-instruct. Messages, streaming and the rest of your code stay the same. Routing & failover guide.
Self-host or use the API?
Hunyuan A13B Instruct ships open weights (tencent/Hunyuan-A13B-Instruct, ~50.4K downloads and 795 likes in the last 30 days), with community quantizations (fp8) for smaller GPUs, so you can run it yourself. Most teams still use the API: no GPU to provision or keep warm, no inference ops, and instant access across 1 providers with automatic failover. Self-host when data residency or fixed per-token economics matter most.
