One block appears per hop where a preceding model actually ran this turn and
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.

arrives via the standard content_block_start / content_block_stop
pair and carries no deltas.

Echo the assistant turn back verbatim, including this block in its original position. The block marks the boundary between content produced before and after a fallback hop, and the server relies on that boundary to validate the turn: when thinking runs flank the boundary, omitting the block merges them into one span the server cannot validate (the request is rejected), and moving it into the middle of a single run is likewise rejected; between non-thinking blocks the block's placement has no validation effect.

type BetaIterationsUsage = Optional[List[BetaIterationsUsageItem]]Per-iteration token usage breakdown.
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:
- 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.

消息批处理
创建消息批次
beta.messages.batches.create(**kwargs) -> BetaMessageBatch发送一批消息创建请求。
检索消息批次
beta.messages.batches.retrieve(message_batch_id, **kwargs) -> BetaMessageBatch此端点是幂等的，可用于轮询消息批次是否完成。要访问消息批次的结果，请向响应中的 results_url 字段发起请求。
列出消息批次
beta.messages.batches.list(**kwargs) -> SyncPage[BetaMessageBatch]列出工作区内的所有消息批次。最近创建的批次最先返回。
取消消息批次
beta.messages.batches.cancel(message_batch_id, **kwargs) -> BetaMessageBatch批次可在处理结束前的任何时间取消。一旦发起取消，批次将进入 canceling 状态，此时系统可能会先完成任何正在进行的、不可中断的请求，然后再最终完成取消。
删除消息批次
beta.messages.batches.delete(message_batch_id, **kwargs) -> BetaDeletedMessageBatch删除消息批次。
检索消息批次结果
beta.messages.batches.results(message_batch_id, **kwargs) -> BetaMessageBatchIndividualResponse以 .jsonl 文件的形式流式传输消息批次的结果。
