}

Configuration
Important Notes
JSON Response Format:

If using json_object response format, include the word "json" in your prompt
This feature requires models released after November 2023
The model will guarantee valid JSON output

Temperature Settings:

0.0 - Deterministic, consistent outputs
0.7 - Balanced (default)
2.0 - Maximum creativity and randomness

Token Management:

-1 = No limit (uses model's maximum context)
Set specific limits to control costs and response length
