Feature Request: Cerebras Provider Support

Summary

Add Cerebras as a supported AI connector in git-lrc.

Why Cerebras?

• Cerebras offers a free API tier making it accessible for open-source users
• It uses an OpenAI-compatible API, so integration should be straightforward
• Extremely fast inference (runs on Cerebras hardware)
• Base URL: https://api.cerebras.ai/v1

Suggested Implementation

Since Cerebras is OpenAI-compatible, it could reuse the existing OpenAI connector with a configurable base_url:

References

• Cerebras API Docs: https://inference-docs.cerebras.ai
• OpenAI-compatible endpoint confirmed

This would make git-lrc accessible to more free-tier users.

Hi, I would love to work on this! Could you please assign this issue to me under GSSoC?

You can give it a try @krishsharma-code

This is the backend - https://github.com/HexmosTech/LiveReview

You need to add the connector there first, then add the same in lrc ui from git-lrc side. You can try exploring how that can be accomplished.

Thanks for assigning this to me, @shrsv! 🙌

Got it. I will first fork and explore the LiveReview backend repository to implement the Cerebras connector there, and then integrate it into the git-lrc UI.

Will keep you updated on the progress! 🚀

Hi @shrsv, I have successfully implemented the Cerebras connector on both the backend and frontend setup inside the LiveReview repository.

Here is the link to the opened Pull Request: HexmosTech/LiveReview#50

Please review the changes. Once this gets merged, I'll proceed with the remaining UI sync on the git-lrc side as discussed! 🚀
