Venice Responses

Use Venice's Alpha POST /responses endpoint - an OpenAI-compatible, stateless Responses API with typed output blocks (reasoning, message, function_call, web_search_call). Covers request shape, input items, tools (function, web_search, x_search), reasoning controls, incomplete responses, streaming events, differences from /chat/completions, the supported venice_parameters subset, and E2EE behavior.

# Venice Responses API (Alpha)

`POST /api/v1/responses` is Venice's OpenAI-compatible Responses endpoint. It returns a **typed output array** instead of a single `message.content` string — useful for agents that need to separate reasoning, messages, tool calls, and web-search events. Internally the request is translated to a chat completion, so model support matches [`venice-chat`](../venice-chat/SKILL.md).

> **Alpha.** The spec labels it Alpha (and its description still says "Alpha testers only"), but access is no longer restricted: any Bearer API key or x402 wallet can call it. Schemas may still change.

## Use when

- A client library expects the OpenAI Responses shape (`output[]` with `type: "reasoning" | "message" | "function_call" | "web_search_call"`).
- You want reasoning, message, and tool-call output cleanly separated.
- You want SSE streaming with typed events.

Otherwise use [`venice-chat`](../venice-chat/SKILL.md) — it has structured output, audio/video/file inputs, E2EE, sampling controls, and every `venice_parameters` field.

## Limitations vs `/chat/completions`

| Limitation | Detail |
|---|---|
| **Stateless** | Nothing is stored. Send the full history each call. `previous_response_id`, `store`, `background` are ignored. |
| **No E2EE** | E2EE-capable models return `400` unless `venice_parameters.enable_e2ee: false` (TEE-only mode). For encrypted inference use `/chat/completions`. |
