Provide rigorous, source-aware analysis." }, { "role": "user", "content": "Compare the safety and capability trade-offs of frontier closed-weight models versus open-weight alternatives for enterprise deployment in 2026, with mitigations." } ], "max_tokens": 8000 } ``` ### Production Code Generation Generate production-ready code with full reasoning ```json { "model": "claude-opus-4-7", "messages": [ { "role": "system", "content": "You are a senior software engineer. Write clean, well-tested, production code." }, { "role": "user", "content": "Implement a distributed rate limiter in Go using Redis Cluster with the leaky bucket algorithm. Include unit tests." } ], "max_tokens": 6000 } ``` ## Response Format ```json { "id": "chatcmpl-abc123", "object": "chat.completion", "choices": [ { "index": 0, "message": { "role": "assistant", "content": "Response text here" }, "finish_reason": "stop" } ], "usage": { "prompt_tokens": 100, "completion_tokens": 50, "total_tokens": 150 } } ``` ## Tips - Most capable Anthropic model — pick this for the hardest reasoning tasks - 128K output enables long-form drafts in a single response - `temperature` is deprecated for this model — omit it from your request body (Anthropic returns 400 if sent) - Streaming recommended for long responses - Compatible with both Anthropic Messages and OpenAI SDK formats ## Documentation https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/about-claude/models
