# tm infer models

> Call GET /v1/models on serverless inference.

## When To Use This

Use `tm infer models` when you want to enumerate models from the serverless host.

On the default Tensormesh serverless host, this route works without an inference API key.

## Usage

```sh theme={null}
tm infer models [OPTIONS]
```

## Examples

### List models from the default serverless host.

```sh theme={null}
tm infer models
```
