Description

OpenAI GPT-6 Sol — built for complex coding and agentic workflows. It supports text and image input, a 1,050,000-token context window, up to 128,000 output tokens, and reasoning effort from none to max, with medium as the default. Use /v1/responses for tool calling: on /v1/chat/completions, function calling works only with reasoning_effort set to none. On /v1/responses, send the whole conversation in the input array on every turn; requests that carry previous_response_id or conversation are refused.
