Client Lifecycle

The SDK manages HTTP resources for you, but you still need to close the client when you are done.

Recommended Pattern

from touai import TouAI
 
with TouAI() as client:
    results = client.context_hub.search("quarterly revenue")
    print(results.total_results)

When used as a context manager, the underlying HTTP connections are released automatically.

Manual Lifecycle

from touai import TouAI
 
client = TouAI()
try:
    results = client.context_hub.search("quarterly revenue")
    print(results.total_results)
finally:
    client.close()

When to Choose Each Style

Pattern	Best For
Context manager	scripts, CLIs, short-lived jobs
Manual `close()`	long-lived services with explicit lifecycle management

If you create a client inside helper functions or background jobs, prefer the context manager form to avoid leaking network resources.
