--- title: Count tokens in a Message url: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/python/messages/count_tokens --- # Count tokens in a Message `messages.count_tokens(**kwargs) -> MessageTokensCount` **POST** `/v1/messages/count_tokens` Count the number of tokens in a Message. The Token Count API can be used to count the number of tokens in a Message, including tools, images, and documents, without creating it. Learn more about token counting in our [user guide](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/token-counting?sdk_languages=python) ## Parameters - `messages: Iterable[MessageParam]` Input messages. Our models are trained to operate on alternating `user` and `assistant` conversational turns. When creating a new `Message`, you specify the prior conversational turns with the `messages` parameter, and the model then generates the next `Message` in the conversation. Consecutive `user` or `assistant` turns in your request will be combined into a single turn. Each input message must be an object with a `role` and `content`. You can specify a single `user`-role message, or you can include multiple `user` and `assistant` messages. If the final message uses the `assistant` role, the response content will continue immediately from the content in that message. This can be used to constrain part of the model's response. This is called prefill. On models that don't support prefill, creating a message that ends with a partial `assistant` response returns a 400 error. See [Prefill not supported](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/errors?sdk_languages=python#prefill-not-supported). Example with a single `user` message: ```json [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}] ``` Example with multiple conversational turns: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "Hello there."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi, I'm Claude. How can I help you?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Can you explain LLMs in plain English?"}, ] ``` Example with a partially-filled response from Claude, for models that support prefill: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("}, ] ``` Each input message `content` may be either a single `string` or an array of content blocks, where each block has a specific `type`. Using a `string` for `content` is shorthand for an array of one content block of type `"text"`. The following input messages are equivalent: ```json {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"} ``` ```json {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, Claude"}]} ``` See [input examples](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/working-with-messages?sdk_languages=python). Note that if you want to include a [system prompt](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/claude-prompting-best-practices?sdk_languages=python#give-claude-a-role), you can use the top-level `system` parameter — there is no `"system"` role for input messages in the Messages API. There is a limit of 100,000 messages in a single request. - `content: Union[str, Iterable[Union[TextBlockParam, ImageBlockParam, DocumentBlockParam, 14 more]]]` - `str` - `Iterable[Union[TextBlockParam, ImageBlockParam, DocumentBlockParam, 14 more]]` - `class TextBlockParam` - `type: Literal["text"]` - `text: str` minLength: 1 - `cache_control: Optional[CacheControlEphemeralParam]` Create a cache control breakpoint at this content block. - `type: Literal["ephemeral"]` - `ttl: Optional[Literal["5m", "1h"]]` The time-to-live for the cache control breakpoint.

At most one per `tool_result`, only on a non-error result answering a browser toolset member `tool_use`. The server renders the model-visible text from it; the model never sees the raw fields. - `type: Literal["browser_state"]` - `tabs: Iterable[BrowserStateTabEntryParam]` All tabs open in the browser after this call — the full inventory, not a delta. May be empty. Whenever non-empty, exactly one entry carries `active: true`. maxItems: 100 - `tab_id: str` The caller-assigned identifier for this tab, unique within the inventory. minLength: 1, maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `title: str` The title of the page the tab is showing.

"Nothing to report" is expressed by omitting the field, never by an empty list. minItems: 1, maxItems: 200 - `class BrowserStateChangeTabOpenedParam` A tab this call's execution opened that remains open at its end — the creation delta of the `tabs` inventory, not an event log. Carries only the `tab_id`; the tab's `title` and `url` live on its `tabs` entry, which must include the same `tab_id`. A tab opened during a failed call gets no deferred `tab_opened`; it simply appears in the next result's `tabs` inventory. - `type: Literal["tab_opened"]` - `tab_id: str` The `tab_id` of the opened tab, present in `tabs`. minLength: 1, maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `class BrowserStateChangeDownloadStartedParam` A file download that started during this call. - `type: Literal["download_started"]` - `download_id: str` The caller-assigned identifier for this download, stable across the state changes reporting it. minLength: 1, maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `url: str` The final post-redirect URL the download was served from. maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `class BrowserStateChangeDownloadCompletedParam` A file download that finished during this call, reported with the same `download_id` as its `download_started` — or without a prior `download_started`, when the download finished during the call that started it (at most one state change per `download_id` per result). - `type: Literal["download_completed"]` - `download_id: str` The caller-assigned identifier for this download, stable across the state changes reporting it. minLength: 1, maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `url: str` The final post-redirect URL the download was served from. maxLength: 4096, pattern: ^[^\x00-\x1f\x7f-\x9f\u2028\u2029]*$ - `path: Optional[str]` Where the executor saved the file, on the executor's filesystem.

Thinking tokens count toward your `max_tokens` limit. Which `type` values are accepted, and what happens when you omit `thinking`, depend on the model. See [thinking](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/thinking?sdk_languages=python#configuring-thinking) for each model's behavior. - `class ThinkingConfigEnabledParam` - `type: Literal["enabled"]` - `budget_tokens: int` Determines how many tokens Claude can use for its internal reasoning process. Larger budgets can enable more thorough analysis for complex problems, improving response quality. Must be ≥1024 and less than `max_tokens`. See [extended thinking](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/extended-thinking?sdk_languages=python) for details. minimum: 1024 - `display: Optional[Literal["summarized", "omitted"]]` Controls how thinking content appears in the response. When set to `summarized`, thinking is returned normally. When set to `omitted`, thinking content is redacted but a signature is returned for multi-turn continuity. The default depends on the model; see [Controlling thinking display](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/thinking?sdk_languages=python#controlling-thinking-display). - `"summarized"` - `"omitted"` - `class ThinkingConfigDisabledParam` - `type: Literal["disabled"]` - `class ThinkingConfigBetweenToolsParam` - `type: Literal["between_tools"]` - `class ThinkingConfigAdaptiveParam` - `type: Literal["adaptive"]` - `display: Optional[Literal["summarized", "omitted"]]` Controls how thinking content appears in the response. When set to `summarized`, thinking is returned normally. When set to `omitted`, thinking content is redacted but a signature is returned for multi-turn continuity. The default depends on the model; see [Controlling thinking display](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/thinking?sdk_languages=python#controlling-thinking-display). - `"summarized"` - `"omitted"` - `tool_choice: Optional[ToolChoiceParam]` How the model should use the provided tools. The model can use a specific tool, any available tool, decide by itself, or not use tools at all. - `class ToolChoiceAutoParam` The model will automatically decide whether to use tools. - `type: Literal["auto"]` - `disable_parallel_tool_use: Optional[bool]` Whether to disable parallel tool use. Defaults to `false`. If set to `true`, the model will output at most one tool use. - `class ToolChoiceAnyParam` The model will use any available tools. - `type: Literal["any"]` - `disable_parallel_tool_use: Optional[bool]` Whether to disable parallel tool use. Defaults to `false`. If set to `true`, the model will output exactly one tool use. - `class ToolChoiceToolParam` The model will use the specified tool with `tool_choice.name`. - `type: Literal["tool"]` - `name: str` The name of the tool to use. - `disable_parallel_tool_use: Optional[bool]` Whether to disable parallel tool use. Defaults to `false`. If set to `true`, the model will output exactly one tool use. - `class ToolChoiceNoneParam` The model will not be allowed to use tools. - `type: Literal["none"]` - `tools: Optional[Iterable[MessageCountTokensToolParam]]` Definitions of tools that the model may use. If you include `tools` in your API request, the model may return `tool_use` content blocks that represent the model's use of those tools. You can then run those tools using the tool input generated by the model and then optionally return results back to the model using `tool_result` content blocks. There are two types of tools: **client tools** and **server tools**. The behavior described below applies to client tools. For [server tools](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/server-tools?sdk_languages=python), see their individual documentation as each has its own behavior (e.g., the [web search tool](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool?sdk_languages=python)). Each tool definition includes: * `name`: Name of the tool. * `description`: Optional, but strongly-recommended description of the tool. * `input_schema`: [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for the tool `input` shape that the model will produce in `tool_use` output content blocks. For example, if you defined `tools` as: ```json [ { "name": "get_stock_price", "description": "Get the current stock price for a given ticker symbol.", "input_schema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "ticker": { "type": "string", "description": "The stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL for Apple Inc." } }, "required": ["ticker"] } } ] ``` And then asked the model "What's the S&P 500 at today?", the model might produce `tool_use` content blocks in the response like this: ```json [ { "type": "tool_use", "id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "name": "get_stock_price", "input": { "ticker": "^GSPC" } } ] ``` You might then run your `get_stock_price` tool with `{"ticker": "^GSPC"}` as an input, and return the following back to the model in a subsequent `user` message: ```json [ { "type": "tool_result", "tool_use_id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "content": "259.75 USD" } ] ``` Tools can be used for workflows that include running client-side tools and functions, or more generally whenever you want the model to produce a particular JSON structure of output. See our [guide](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/overview?sdk_languages=python) for more details. - `class ToolParam` - `type: Optional[Literal["custom"]]` - `input_schema: InputSchema` [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for this tool's input.
