Sends messages to any chat model id through POST /v1/chat/completions and returns the answer, the token usage and what the request cost. system adds instructions, image_urls lets a model that sees images look at them (a file generate made works), web_search lets the model search while it answers. Billed to the key in the MCP request's Authorization header (Bearer sk-uplink-live-...); without one it fails.
A chat model id from list_models.
The conversation, OpenAI chat format.
Instructions placed ahead of the conversation as a system message.
Image URLs attached to the last user message, for the chat models that take images (input_modalities in list_models). A file generate made works.
Cap on completion tokens.
True: the model may search the web while it answers (billed per search, the price in GET /v1/catalog server_tools).

}Sends the same conversation (or one prompt) to 2 to 5 chat model ids at once through POST /v1/chat/completions and returns every answer side by side with its token usage, cost and time, plus the total. For a second opinion from another model, or to pick the model that answers a kind of question best. Completions are capped at max_tokens each (default 1024).

}Runs any media model id from list_media_models with its settings (see media_model) through POST /v1/generations, waits up to wait_seconds for the files, and returns the generation: a link per file (kept 30 days), a finished image inline, and the charge. A video that is still running when the wait ends is returned as it stands; call generation with its id to keep waiting. Charged to the key in the MCP request's Authorization header when the model accepts the task; a failed generation is refunded in full. To go from an image to a video or an edit, pass the image's URL in image_urls.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| input* | object | The model's settings, as media_model lists them under params: prompt, size or aspect_ratio, resolution, duration, image_urls, text, voice... A setting left out takes the model's default. |
| model* | string | A media model id from list_media_models. |
| preview | boolean | Default true: a finished image comes back inline as image content besides its link. |
| wait_seconds | integer | Seconds to wait for the files before answering with the generation as it stands, 0 to 120. Images usually finish inside the default 60; a video takes minutes, so follow up with generation. |
