> ## Agent Instructions
> Phaseo Gateway base URL: https://api.phaseo.app/v1. Send `Authorization: Bearer $PHASEO_API_KEY` with every request.
> Model IDs look like `provider/model`, for example `openai/gpt-6-astra`. Do not guess IDs: list them with `GET /v1/models` or check https://phaseo.app/models. `phaseo/free` routes to an available free model and needs no wallet balance.
> For new text integrations prefer `POST /v1/responses`. `POST /v1/chat/completions` (OpenAI format) and `POST /v1/messages` (Anthropic format) suit existing code.
> The full API contract is https://phaseo.app/docs/openapi/v1/openapi.yaml. Official SDKs: `@phaseo/sdk` (TypeScript) and `phaseo` (Python), plus Go, C#, PHP, Ruby and Rust.
> Search these docs over MCP at https://phaseo.app/docs/mcp, and install Phaseo skills with `npx skills add https://phaseo.app/docs`. If a page is wrong or out of date, report it with the MCP `submit_feedback` tool.
> Manage Phaseo accounts with the `phaseo` CLI (`npm install -g @phaseo/cli`, then `phaseo login` or `phaseo login --device-code`), the `/v1` Management API or the MCP server at `https://mcp.phaseo.app/mcp?access=manage`. Do not send users to the dashboard for account tasks. A person is still needed for sign-up, approving a sign-in, paying the first top-up on the checkout link that `phaseo credits add` returns when no card is saved, confirming each saved-card top-up from the emailed link, and account security (password, MFA, passkeys). Create API keys with `phaseo keys create --name <name> --json`; never guess one. Credit top-ups need `phaseo login --scopes billing:write` first. Task map: https://phaseo.app/docs/v1/developers/manage-from-an-agent.md.

# Chat completions

> Call /chat/completions from any Phaseo SDK.

Call the SDK's chat method to send `POST /v1/chat/completions` and get one completed response. For new integrations, the [Responses API](https://phaseo.app/docs/v1/sdk-reference/client/responses.md) gives one request shape for text, multimodal input, tools and richer output items.

```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
const chat = await client.generateText({
  model: "openai/gpt-6-astra",
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "You are helpful." },

  ],
});

console.log(chat.choices[0].message.content);

| Language | Method | Returns |
| - | - | - |
| TypeScript | `client.generateText(request)`; `client.chat.completions.create(request)` does the same and switches to streaming when `stream` is true | `ChatCompletionsResponse` |
| Python | `client.generate_text(request)`; also `client.chat.completions.create(request)` | `APIResponse` dict |
| Go | `client.GenerateText(ctx, req)`, alias `CreateChatCompletion`; takes a `phaseo.ChatCompletionsRequest` | `map[string]interface{}` |
| C# | `client.GenerateText(request)`, alias `CreateChatCompletion` | `Dictionary<string, object>?` |
| PHP | `$client->generateText($request)`, alias `createChatCompletion()` | Array |
| Ruby | `client.generate_text(...)`, alias `create_chat_completion` | Hash |
| Java | `client.createChatCompletion(request)`; takes a `Map` or Jackson `JsonNode` | Jackson `JsonNode` |
| Rust | `client.chat_completions(&request)` | `PhaseoResponse`; the JSON is in `body` |

Every return value has the Chat Completions shape: the reply is in `choices[0].message.content`, with `finish_reason` and `usage` alongside.

## Stream the response

```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
for await (const chunk of client.streamChat({
  model: "openai/gpt-6-astra",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Stream a story" }],
})) {
  if (chunk.text) process.stdout.write(chunk.text);
}
```

```python Python theme={null}
for chunk in client.stream_chat({
    "model": "openai/gpt-6-astra",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Stream a story"}],
}):
    if chunk.get("text"):
        print(chunk["text"], end="", flush=True)
```

```java Java theme={null}
import app.phaseo.sdk.Phaseo;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

Phaseo client = new Phaseo(System.getenv("PHASEO_API_KEY"));
var payload = Map.of(
    "model", "openai/gpt-6-astra",
    "messages", List.of(Map.of("role", "user", "content", "Hello")),
    "stream", true
);
try (var lines = client.rawClient().requestLines(
    "POST", "/chat/completions", null, null,
    new ObjectMapper().writeValueAsString(payload)
)) {
    lines.forEach(System.out::println);
}
```

| Language | How to stream |
| - | - |
| TypeScript | `client.streamChat(request)` yields parsed chunks; `client.streamText()` yields the raw SSE lines. |
| Python | `client.stream_chat(request)` yields parsed chunks; `client.stream_text()` yields the raw SSE lines. |
| Java | `createChatCompletion` returns one JSON body. Set `stream: true` and send the request with `rawClient().requestLines`, which returns SSE lines as they arrive; close it with try-with-resources. |
| Go, C#, PHP, Ruby, Rust | No Chat Completions streaming helper; leave `stream` unset. In C#, PHP and Ruby, [Responses](https://phaseo.app/docs/v1/sdk-reference/client/responses.md#stream-the-response) has a streaming method. |

Each parsed chunk (TypeScript and Python) keeps the original fields (`choices`, `id`, …) and adds `text` (the content added by this chunk), `usage` and reasoning tokens (`reasoningTokens` / `reasoning_tokens`).

## Parameters

Field names are the JSON body fields in every SDK. Go's typed `phaseo.ChatCompletionsRequest` uses PascalCase struct fields (`Model`, `Messages`).

| Group | Fields |
| - | - |
| Required | `model`; `messages` with roles `system`, `developer`, `user`, `assistant` or `tool`, and content as a string or parts |
| Sampling | `temperature` (0–2), `top_p` (0–1), `top_k` (-1 or more), `min_p` (0–1), `seed`, where the model supports them |
| Length and penalties | `max_tokens` or `max_completion_tokens`, `presence_penalty` and `frequency_penalty` (-2 to 2), `repetition_penalty` (above 0), `stop` (string or array) |
| Tools | `tools`, `tool_choice`, `max_tool_calls`, `parallel_tool_calls` |
| Reasoning | `reasoning` object or `reasoning_effort` |
| Log probabilities | `logprobs`, `top_logprobs` (0–20) |
| Output | `response_format`, `n` (1–16), `stream`, `service_tier`, `metadata` (string values) |
| Gateway | `provider` routing, `usage` (include usage), `meta` (include the gateway meta block) |

[Parameters](https://phaseo.app/docs/v1/api-reference/parameters.md) explains each field, and the [Chat Completions API reference](https://phaseo.app/docs/v1/api-reference/endpoint/chat-completions.md) has the full schema.

## Response

`ChatCompletionsResponse`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "id": "chatcmpl-123",
  "object": "chat.completion",
  "created": 1677652288,
  "model": "openai/gpt-6-astra",
  "choices": [
    {
      "index": 0,
      "message": {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": "Hello there, how may I assist you today?"
      },
      "finish_reason": "stop"
    }
  ],
  "usage": {
    "prompt_tokens": 9,
    "completion_tokens": 12,
    "total_tokens": 21
  }
}
```

With `stream: true`, the endpoint sends SSE frames that end with `data: [DONE]`:

```
data: {"id":"chatcmpl-123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","created":1677652288,"model":"openai/gpt-6-astra","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{"role":"assistant","content":""},"finish_reason":null}]}

data: {"id":"chatcmpl-123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","created":1677652288,"model":"openai/gpt-6-astra","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{"content":"Hello"},"finish_reason":null}]}

data: {"id":"chatcmpl-123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","created":1677652288,"model":"openai/gpt-6-astra","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{},"finish_reason":"stop"}],"usage":{"prompt_tokens":9,"completion_tokens":12,"total_tokens":21}}

data: [DONE]
```
