# mentra-provider `mentra-provider` is Mentra's publishable provider-core crate. It contains provider-neutral request, response, model, streaming, and tool schema types that can be reused without depending on the full Mentra runtime. For most application code, depend on [`mentra`](https://crates.io/crates/mentra) instead. The `mentra` crate re-exports these provider-core types and adds the runtime, tooling, persistence, and collaboration layers.
