Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
`temperature`	number	no	`0.7`	Sampling temperature. 0 is deterministic and 2 is maximum randomness. · Range: 0 – 2
`top_p`	number	no	`0.9`	Nucleus sampling probability mass. Lower values make outputs more focused. · Range: 0 – 1
`max_tokens`	number	no	`4096`	Maximum output tokens. · Range: 1 – 131072
`stop`	string	no	-	Up to 4 strings where the model will stop generating further tokens.
`enable_thinking`	boolean	no	true	Enable reasoning before answering.
`reasoning_effort`	enum	no	`"medium"`	Reasoning effort level. none disables thinking. low, medium, high, and max set bounded thinking budgets sized to the selected model. · Allowed: `none`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `max`
`thinking_budget`	number	no	`32768`	Maximum tokens reserved for reasoning when thinking is enabled. · Range: 1 – 262144
`vl_high_resolution_images`	boolean	no	true	Use higher resolution processing for image inputs.
`max_pixels`	number	no	`2621440`	Maximum pixel count per image when high resolution processing is disabled. · Range: 4096 – 16777216
`video_fps`	number	no	`2`	Frames per second to sample from video inputs. · Range: 0.1 – 10
`treat_images_as_video`	boolean	no	false	Treat a sequence of images as video frames.
`tool_web_search`	boolean	no	false	Search the web for real-time information. Adds $0.02 to the request cost for each invoked call.
`disable_formatting`	boolean	no	false	Return raw provider-style output without EmpirioLabs source formatting where supported.
`response_format`	enum	no	-	Constrain the output to valid JSON. Use JSON mode for any JSON object, or supply a JSON Schema to force an exact response shape.

Notes

Text, image, audio, and video input are supported, and the model replies in text. Thinking is on by default; use enable_thinking to turn it off and thinking_budget to cap it at up to 262144 tokens. Thinking tokens are billed as output tokens. Web search is an optional built-in tool exposed through tool_web_search and adds $0.02 for each invoked call; a single request can invoke it more than once, and each invoked call is billed. For audio input, pass the file as a URL or a base64 data URI. A video’s soundtrack is billed as audio tokens alongside its video tokens.

Per-tool billing (usage.tool_usage)

When this model invokes built-in tools inside a single request, the response carries a normalized usage.tool_usage map alongside the token counts:

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

Tool counts are already factored into cost_usd and are surfaced for transparency so you can audit per-tool billing. The field is omitted when no tools were invoked.
