How should the date-suffixed version be called?
Set model to claude-haiku-4-5-20251001. It is the explicit version identifier for Claude Haiku 4.5, suitable for recording test results and managing configurations; do not omit the date suffix yourself, and do not treat the date suffix as the knowledge cutoff date.
Can Haiku 4.5 view images and generate images?
It supports combined image and text input, and can explain image content in text, analyze charts, or answer questions related to screenshots; it is not an image generation model. Chat Completions can combine text and image_url blocks in message content, along with specific observation goals.
How can Haiku 4.5 continue a multi-turn conversation?
Include user and assistant messages relevant to the current task in Messages or Chat Completions messages, using the specific format required by the selected public API. Retain the latest code, interim conclusions, and important constraints; when necessary, re-summarize longer history to avoid relying on outdated information.
Can Haiku 4.5 read PDFs?
Prepare the document text, table data, or clear page screenshots relevant to the question, and specify whether you need a summary, comparison, or extraction of particular information. Submit them in the content formats supported by the selected public API; a PDF URL cannot be used as image_url. Require results to retain original-text locations, field evidence, and unconfirmed items, and verify key numbers against the source materials.
Does having reasoning capabilities mean it can automatically execute code?
Tool workflows should be organized according to the tool definitions and result formats of the selected public API. The model is responsible for planning, explaining results, and generating call suggestions; querying, running code, and writing are completed by the execution environment provided by the application. Actual completion status should come from tool returns and verification records, and cannot be determined solely from the model's description.
