# Search Models Server Tool

> Let a model discover suitable models from Phaseo's live catalogue.

Use `phaseo:search_models` when the calling model needs to select or recommend a model using current catalogue metadata.

```json theme={null}
{
  "tools": [{ "type": "phaseo:search_models", "parameters": { "max_results": 5 } }],
  "max_tool_calls": 10
}
```

The tool call can filter by `query`, `input_modalities`, `output_modalities`, `series`, `provider`, and `required_params`. Results include model IDs, modalities, providers, supported parameters, and pricing metadata.

Usage is reported as `usage.server_tool_use.search_models_requests`.
