# Models ## List Models **get** `/v1/models` List available models. The Models API response can be used to determine which models are available for use in the API. More recently released models are listed first. ### Query Parameters - `after_id: optional string` ID of the object to use as a cursor for pagination. When provided, returns the page of results immediately after this object. - `before_id: optional string` ID of the object to use as a cursor for pagination. When provided, returns the page of results immediately before this object. - `limit: optional number` Number of items to return per page. Defaults to `20`. Ranges from `1` to `1000`. ### Header Parameters - `"anthropic-beta": optional array of AnthropicBeta` Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use. - `string` - `"message-batches-2024-09-24" or "prompt-caching-2024-07-31" or "computer-use-2024-10-22" or 25 more` - `"message-batches-2024-09-24"` - `"prompt-caching-2024-07-31"` - `"computer-use-2024-10-22"` - `"computer-use-2025-01-24"` - `"pdfs-2024-09-25"` - `"token-counting-2024-11-01"` - `"token-efficient-tools-2025-02-19"` - `"output-128k-2025-02-19"` - `"files-api-2025-04-14"` - `"mcp-client-2025-04-04"` - `"mcp-client-2025-11-20"` - `"dev-full-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"code-execution-2025-05-22"` - `"extended-cache-ttl-2025-04-11"` - `"context-1m-2025-08-07"` - `"context-management-2025-06-27"` - `"model-context-window-exceeded-2025-08-26"` - `"skills-2025-10-02"` - `"fast-mode-2026-02-01"` - `"output-300k-2026-03-24"` - `"user-profiles-2026-03-24"` - `"advisor-tool-2026-03-01"` - `"managed-agents-2026-04-01"` - `"cache-diagnosis-2026-04-07"` - `"thinking-token-count-2026-05-13"` - `"server-side-fallback-2026-06-01"` - `"fallback-credit-2026-06-01"` ### Returns - `data: array of ModelInfo` - `id: string` Unique model identifier. - `capabilities: ModelCapabilities` Model capability information. - `batch: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports the Batch API. - `supported: boolean` Whether this capability is supported by the model. - `citations: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports citation generation. - `code_execution: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports code execution tools. - `context_management: ContextManagementCapability` Context management support and available strategies. - `clear_thinking_20251015: CapabilitySupport` Indicates whether a capability is supported. - `clear_tool_uses_20250919: CapabilitySupport` Indicates whether a capability is supported. - `compact_20260112: CapabilitySupport` Indicates whether a capability is supported. - `supported: boolean` Whether this capability is supported by the model. - `effort: EffortCapability` Effort (reasoning_effort) support and available levels. - `high: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports high effort level. - `low: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports low effort level. - `max: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports max effort level. - `medium: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports medium effort level. - `supported: boolean` Whether this capability is supported by the model. - `xhigh: CapabilitySupport` Indicates whether a capability is supported. - `image_input: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model accepts image content blocks. - `pdf_input: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model accepts PDF content blocks. - `structured_outputs: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports structured output / JSON mode / strict tool schemas. - `thinking: ThinkingCapability` Thinking capability and supported type configurations. - `supported: boolean` Whether this capability is supported by the model. - `types: ThinkingTypes` Supported thinking type configurations. - `adaptive: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports thinking with type 'adaptive' (auto). - `enabled: CapabilitySupport` Whether the model supports thinking with type 'enabled'. - `created_at: string` RFC 3339 datetime string representing the time at which the model was released.
