| `tool_web_search`     | boolean | no       | false      | Enable built-in web search with cited sources.

| `response_format`     | enum    | no       | -          | Return structured JSON output. JSON mode returns any valid JSON object; JSON Schema mode enforces an exact schema.                                                                                                                                                                      |

## Notes

Reasoning is always on and cannot be disabled. reasoning_effort accepts minimal through xhigh. On /v1/chat/completions the reasoning text is not returned; on /v1/responses you can request reasoning summaries with reasoning.summary, and reasoning tokens are billed as output tokens and count against the output budget either way. Text, image, MP4 video, and PDF inputs are supported; up to 50 images can be attached. Audio input is not supported on this checkpoint; the Muse Spark 1.1 and 1.2 checkpoints accept audio. PDFs use text from the first 100 pages and page images from the first 50 pages. Built-in web search adds \$0.00825 per executed search query and reports the count in usage.tool_usage. OpenAI Responses requests also support custom tools and deferred tool search. tool_choice supports auto and none. Prompts and completions sent to this Standard checkpoint are not used by Meta to train its models.

**Per-tool billing (`usage.tool_usage`)**

When this model invokes tools inside a single request, the response carries a normalized `usage.tool_usage` map alongside the token counts. The example below shows the shape. Exact field names, units, and which tools appear can vary by tool:

```json
"usage": {
  "prompt_tokens": 123,
  "completion_tokens": 456,
  "cost_usd": 0.0042,
  "tool_usage": {"web_search": 3}
}
```

The tool counts are already factored into `cost_usd` and are surfaced so you can audit per-tool billing. The field is omitted when no billed tool was invoked.
