 All of these templates can be configured via the template interface.  You may want to change the model or startup arguments, depending on the template you selected.

 Several examples have been provided in the client to help you get started with your own implementation.
 
-### Completions
-
-Call to `/v1/completions` with json response
+First, set your API key as an environment variable:
 
 ```bash
-python -m workers.openai.client -k <API_KEY> -e <ENDPOINT_NAME> --completion --model <MODEL_NAME>
+export VAST_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
 ```
 
-### Chat Completion (json)
-
-Call to `/v1/chat/completions` with json response
-
-```bash
-python -m workers.openai.client -k <API_KEY> -e <ENDPOINT_NAME> --chat --model <MODEL_NAME>
-```
+The `--model` and `--endpoint` flags are optional. If not provided, they default to `Qwen/Qwen3-8B` and `my-vllm-endpoint` respectively.
 
 ### Chat Completion (streaming)
 
 Call to `/v1/chat/completions` with streaming response
 
 ```bash
-python -m workers.openai.client -k <API_KEY> -e <ENDPOINT_NAME> --chat-stream --model <MODEL_NAME>
-```
-
-### Tool Use (json)
-
-Call to `/v1/chat/completions` with tool and json response.
-
-This test defines a simple tool which will list the contents of the local pyworker directory.  The output is then analysed by the model.

-This is the base PyWorker for TGI, designed to create PyWorkers that can utilize various LLMs. It offers two primary endpoints:
+# HuggingFace TGI PyWorker
 
-1. `generate`: Generates the LLM's response to a given prompt in a single request.
-2. `generate_stream`: Streams the LLM's response token by token.
+This is the base PyWorker for HuggingFace Text Generation Inference (TGI) servers. See the [Serverless documentation](https://docs.vast.ai/serverless) for guides and how-to's.
 
-Both endpoints use the following API payload format:
+## Instance Setup
+
+1. Pick a template
+
+This worker is compatible with any TGI backend. We have a template you can use or you can create your own.
+
+- [HuggingFace TGI](https://cloud.vast.ai/?ref_id=62897&creator_id=62897&name=TGI%20(Serverless))
+
+The template can be configured via the template interface. You may want to change the model or startup arguments.
+
+2. Follow the [getting started guide](https://docs.vast.ai/documentation/serverless/quickstart) for help with configuring your serverless setup. For testing, we recommend that you use the default options presented by the web interface.
+
+## Client Setup (Demo)
+
+1. Clone the PyWorker repository to your local machine and install the necessary requirements for running the test client.
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/vast-ai/pyworker
+cd pyworker
+pip install uv
+uv venv -p 3.12
+source .venv/bin/activate
+uv pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Using the Test Client
+
+The test client demonstrates both streaming and non-streaming generation using TGI's native API.
+
+First, set your API key as an environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export VAST_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
+```
+
+The `--endpoint` flag is optional. If not provided, it defaults to `my-tgi-endpoint`.
+
+### Generate (Streaming)
+
+Call to `/generate_stream` with streaming response:
+
+```bash
+python -m workers.tgi.client --generate-stream --endpoint <ENDPOINT_NAME>
+```
+
+### Generate (Non-Streaming)
+
+Call to `/generate` with json response:
+
+```bash
+python -m workers.tgi.client --generate --endpoint <ENDPOINT_NAME>
+```
+
+### Interactive Session (Streaming)
+
+Interactive session with streaming responses. Type `quit` to exit.
+
+```bash
+python -m workers.tgi.client --interactive --endpoint <ENDPOINT_NAME>
+```
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+TGI provides two primary endpoints:
+
+### Generate (Non-Streaming)
+
+`/generate` - Returns the complete response in a single request.
 
 ```json
 {
-  "inputs": "PROMPT",
+  "inputs": "Your prompt here",
   "parameters": {
-    "max_new_tokens": 250
+    "max_new_tokens": 1024,
+    "temperature": 0.7,
+    "return_full_text": false
   }
 }
 ```
 
-Note that the max_new_tokens parameter, rather than the prompt size, impacts performance. For example, if an
-instance is benchmarked to process 100 tokens per second, a request with max_new_tokens = 200 will take
-approximately 2 seconds to complete.
+### Generate Stream (Streaming)
+
+`/generate_stream` - Streams the response token by token.
+
+```json
+{
+  "inputs": "Your prompt here",
+  "parameters": {
+    "max_new_tokens": 1024,
+    "temperature": 0.7,
+    "do_sample": true,
+    "return_full_text": false
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Performance Notes
+
+The `max_new_tokens` parameter (not the prompt size) primarily impacts performance. For example, if an instance is benchmarked to process 100 tokens per second, a request with `max_new_tokens = 200` will take approximately 2 seconds to complete.
