The service interface (`getHint`, `AiHintResponse`) will remain unchanged. + +## AI Provider Wiring + +The hint system currently runs entirely off the in-memory store, so it works without any API key configured. The full AI-powered chat path uses a pluggable provider selected at startup: + +``` +AI_PROVIDER=claude → ClaudeProvider (Anthropic Messages API) +AI_PROVIDER=openai → OpenaiProvider (OpenAI Chat Completions API) +(unset / other) → null provider (deterministic fallback responses) +``` + +The factory is defined in `AiModule` and injects the chosen provider into `AiService` via the `AI_PROVIDER` token: + +```typescript +// src/ai/ai.module.ts +const aiProviderFactory = { + provide: AI_PROVIDER, + useFactory: (configService: ConfigService) => { + const provider = configService.get('AI_PROVIDER'); + if (provider === 'openai') return new OpenaiProvider(configService); + if (provider === 'claude') return new ClaudeProvider(configService); + return null; // ← fallback, no external calls + }, + inject: [ConfigService], +}; +``` + +`ClaudeProvider` calls `POST https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages` using the model specified by `AI_MODEL` (default: `claude-sonnet-4-20250514`), with `AI_MAX_TOKENS` (default: 4096) and `AI_TEMPERATURE` (default: 0.7). + +## Environment Variables + +| Variable | Default | Description | +|---|---|---| +| `AI_PROVIDER` | _(none)_ | `claude` or `openai`; omit to use offline fallback | +| `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` | _(none)_ | Required when `AI_PROVIDER=claude` | +| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | _(none)_ | Required when `AI_PROVIDER=openai` | +| `AI_MODEL` | `claude-sonnet-4-20250514` | Model name passed to the provider | +| `AI_MAX_TOKENS` | `4096` | Maximum tokens per AI response | +| `AI_TEMPERATURE` | `0.7` | Sampling temperature (0 = deterministic, 1 = creative) | + +Copy `.env.example` and fill in the relevant keys: + +```bash +cp .env.example .env +``` + +## Related Endpoints + +| Method | Path | Description | +|---|---|---| +| `POST` | `/ai/hint` | Fetch a graduated hint for a challenge | +| `POST` | `/ai/chat` | Send a free-form message to the AI Mentor | +| `POST` | `/ai/pre-score` | Submit code for an AI pre-score before tutor review | +| `GET` | `/ai/history/:userId` | Retrieve a user's full chat history | + +### POST `/ai/chat` + +Sends a conversational message to the AI Mentor.
