FAQ
Claude Opus 5 costs $2.00 input / $10.00 output per 1M tokens. Anthropic list is $5.00 / $25.00; the discount is 60% on both base rates.
The catalog has no separate long-context tier for Claude Opus 5. Base rates apply within its 1M-token context.
The gateway drops `temperature` and `top_p`. This model rejects a trailing assistant prefill, so the gateway rewrites it as a user continuation turn carrying the prefix.
The gateway retains a forced `tool_choice` on this model. Claude `response_format` with `json_schema` is advisory. Use a tool with `strict: true` for enforced argument shape; forced tool choice can require that tool call.
Catalog capabilities: text input, text output, image input, streaming, reasoning and tool calling. For Claude image requests, the gateway fetches public remote image URLs and inlines the image data. An inaccessible or rejected URL fails the request; inline base64 is also supported.
