Skills

Thinking Mode

Enables model reasoning before the answer, with adjustable reasoning effort.

Tool Calls

Lets models call functions you define and return structured arguments.

JSON Output

Constrains responses to valid JSON for machine-readable results.

Anthropic API Compatibility

Accepts Anthropic-format requests at a dedicated base URL so Anthropic SDKs work unchanged.

Context Caching

Caches repeated prompt prefixes to reduce cost and latency on later requests.
