Swap two environment variables and change the model name. That’s it. 
export OPENAI_BASE_URL='https://api.telnyx.com/v2/ai/openai'
export OPENAI_API_KEY='KEY***'

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()  # picks up env vars
chat_completion = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Tell me about Telnyx"}],
    temperature=0.0,
    stream=True,
)
Or pass explicitly: 
import os
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key=os.getenv("TELNYX_API_KEY"),
    base_url="https://api.telnyx.com/v2/ai/openai",
)
chat_completion = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Tell me about Telnyx"}],
    temperature=0.0,
    stream=True,
)
