Completion, results and billing

Save the job identifier returned by asynchronous requests and poll the jobs endpoint until the job succeeds or fails. Do not resubmit a generation just because it is still processing. Chat returns a completed reply and usage details. A multi-step workflow can include separately billed successful steps even if a later step fails. Keep returned asset links with your project, and consult each action for its output format.

Coding agents can discover the current catalog and input requirements from the Sorceress agent instructions. Use a Sorceress key; provider credentials stay on the server.
