content: array of BetaContentBlockContent generated by the model.
Content generated by the model.
This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a type that determines its shape.
Example:
[{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}]If the request input messages ended with an assistant turn, then the response content will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output.
For example, if the input messages were:
[
{"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("}
]Then the response content might be:

declined. A turn where no preceding model ran and declined has no such
boundary and carries no block — the signal for whether a fallback model
served the response is the presence of a fallback_message entry in
usage.iterations, not this block.
The block is treated like a server-tool content block for streaming: it
arrives via the standard content_block_start / content_block_stop
pair and carries no deltas.

Opaque code that refunds the cache-miss cost when retrying this refused
request on the fallback model. Pass it as fallback_credit_token on the
retry request. Expires 5 minutes after the refusal.
The retry is sent either with the same request body (system, messages,
tools, and other render-shaping fields), or with the same body plus one
appended assistant message whose content is the partial text (with any
trailing whitespace stripped from the final text block) and paired
server-tool blocks from this refusal — which also authorizes that
appended turn as an assistant-prefill continuation on models that otherwise
disallow prefill. A token minted mid-server-tool-loop whose partial content
was continuable may only be redeemed the second way — if a same-body retry
is rejected with a 400 saying the token must be redeemed by continuing the
partial response, retry the second way instead. Either way: same workspace,
same platform; a mismatch is a 400. Resending a token for an already-warm
prefix is permitted but yields no additional credit.

present.
true: retry by resending the same request body plus one appended
assistant message whose content is this response's content with any
trailing whitespace stripped from the final text block and unpaired
tool_use blocks omitted (the same appended-turn shape described on
fallback_credit_token), with the token attached. false: retry by
resending the original request body unchanged, with the token attached —
the appended-assistant form is not available for this refusal (no
continuable partial content, or the request uses output_format or a
tool_choice that forces tool use). One exception: when the request used
output_format or a forced tool_choice and the refusal arrived after
server tools (including MCP connector tools) had already executed, the
token may not be redeemable by either retry form; if the exact-body retry
is then rejected with a 400 saying the token must be redeemed by
continuing the partial response, discard the token and retry without it.
Advisory: if an appended-assistant retry is rejected with a 400 despite
true, fall back to resending the original request body with the token.
The server's suggested retry target for this refusal. Populated when a fallback attempt could not be made (the fallback model's rate limit was exhausted, or it was overloaded); names the fallback model the caller can retry directly. Null otherwise.
stop_reason: "end_turn" or "max_tokens" or "stop_sequence" or 5 moreThe reason that we stopped.
The reason that we stopped.
This may be one the following values:
"end_turn": the model reached a natural stopping point"max_tokens": we exceeded the requestedmax_tokensor the model's maximum"stop_sequence": one of your provided customstop_sequenceswas generated"tool_use": the model invoked one or more tools"pause_turn": we paused a long-running turn. You may provide the response back as-is in a subsequent request to let the model continue."refusal": when streaming classifiers intervene to handle potential policy violations"model_context_window_exceeded": we exceeded the model's context window
In non-streaming mode this value is always non-null. In streaming mode, it is null in the message_start event and non-null otherwise.
stop_sequence: stringWhich custom stop sequence was generated, if any.
Which custom stop sequence was generated, if any.
This value will be a non-null string if one of your custom stop sequences was generated.

Object type.
For Messages, this is always "message".
usage: object{ cache_creation, cache_creation_input_tokens, cache_read_input_tokens, 9 more }Billing and rate-limit usage.
Billing and rate-limit usage.
Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems.
Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in usage will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response.
For example, output_tokens will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude.
Total input tokens in a request is the summation of input_tokens, cache_creation_input_tokens, and cache_read_input_tokens.

A union discriminated on type. redeemed: the retry is billed as if
the conversation had been on the retry model all along — including when the
resulting shift is zero because there was nothing to move. not_applied:

remove_to_redeem: optional array of stringRequest fields to remove before retrying, so the retry can redeem this
token.
Request fields to remove before retrying, so the retry can redeem this token.
Present exactly when reason is variant_fields_present — never null,
never an empty array; absent otherwise. Fields are named only from your own request, and only after
the sealed variant hash matched. A served best-effort retry has already
been billed at normal price; nothing redeems retroactively, but a corrected
re-send inside the token's five-minute window can still redeem.

Per-iteration token usage breakdown.
Each entry represents one sampling iteration, with its own input/output token counts and cache statistics, discriminated by type. For message entries (model sampling iterations, such as the turns of a server-side tool use loop), this allows you to:
- Determine which iterations exceeded long context thresholds (>=200k tokens)
- Calculate the context window size from the last
messageentry - Understand token accumulation across server-side tool use loops
A compaction entry reports the token usage of the compaction operation itself — the server-side request that summarizes the context being closed — NOT the size of the context that was compacted away, and its token counts can be much smaller than that closed context (for example, a compaction that closes a ~200k-token context can report only a few thousand tokens). Do not derive the context window size from a compaction entry, even when it is the last entry. A compaction entry's tokens are not included in the top-level usage fields. When an input-token trigger is in effect (the default — 150,000 tokens unless configured otherwise), each compaction entry closes a context that had reached at least that threshold, though the context can exceed it by the final iteration's output and tool results.

This object provides a read-only decomposition for observability — for example,
how many of the billed output tokens were spent on internal reasoning that may
have been summarized before being returned to you.

the thinking-block delimiter tokens.
Number of output tokens the model generated as internal reasoning, including the thinking-block delimiter tokens.
Reflects the raw reasoning the model produced, not the (possibly shorter)
summarized thinking text returned in the response body. Computed by
re-tokenizing the raw reasoning text, so it may differ from the model's exact
generation count by a small number of tokens. Always ≤ output_tokens;
output_tokens - thinking_tokens approximates the non-reasoning output.

thinking_dropped — a thinking, redacted_thinking or connector_text
block from the request's messages that was removed from the prompt instead
of being shown to the model because it failed a binding check. More entry
types may be added over time; ignore types you do not recognize.

Requires anthropic-beta: thinking-binding-controls-2026-08-01. Present on
every such response from a model that supports extended thinking, as []
when nothing was changed; without the beta, blocks are removed all the same
but nothing is reported. Removed blocks contribute nothing to
usage.input_tokens. When streaming, the array is final in message_start;
the final message_delta event carries it only when a server-side model
fallback happened mid-stream, in which case it holds the serving model's
entries and replaces the one in message_start.
Where the removed block was in your request, as messages.{i}.content.{j}:
i indexes the messages array you sent and j that message's content
array — the same form error messages use.
reason: "model_binding_mismatch" or "prefix_binding_mismatch" or "organization_binding_mismatch" or "end_user_binding_mismatch"Which binding check removed the block: model_binding_mismatch — it was
created by a model whose reasoning the requested model may not read;
prefix_binding_mismatch — the conversation before it differs from the
conversation it was created in (the rest of that turn's consecutive thinking
blocks are removed with it, each with this reason);
organization_binding_mismatch — it was created under a different
organization (an Anthropic organization, AWS account or Google Cloud project)
and this organization is not one of its additional organizations;
end_user_binding_mismatch — it was created for a different end user, or
was removed by the consumer-organization binding. A block that would fail
several checks reports one reason, in this order of precedence:
organization_binding_mismatch, end_user_binding_mismatch,
model_binding_mismatch, prefix_binding_mismatch.
