"end_turn": the model reached a natural stopping point
"max_tokens": we exceeded the requested max_tokens or the model's maximum
"stop_sequence": one of your provided custom stop_sequences was 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

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.

Accepts one of the following:

"end_turn"

"max_tokens"

"stop_sequence"

"tool_use"

"pause_turn"

"refusal"

"model_context_window_exceeded"

stop_sequence: string | null

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.

type: "message"

Object type.

For Messages, this is always "message".

Accepts one of the following:

"message"

usage: BetaUsage { cache_creation, cache_creation_input_tokens, cache_read_input_tokens, 4 more }

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.

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:

[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]

usage: BetaUsage { cache_creation, cache_creation_input_tokens, cache_read_input_tokens, 4 more }

content: Array<BetaContentBlock>

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:

[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]

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 ("}
]
