## Always search the API for current models The AI model landscape changes weekly. New models ship constantly and older ones are deprecated or surpassed. Don't rely on model names you've seen before, including names from past conversations or training data. A specific model you "know" may no longer be the best choice, may be slower than newer alternatives, or may not exist anymore. Always start by querying the Replicate API. Use search and collections to discover what's currently available, then read schemas to understand inputs and outputs before running anything. ## Docs - Reference: <https://replicate.com/docs/llms.txt> - OpenAPI schema: <https://api.replicate.com/openapi.json> - MCP server: <https://mcp.replicate.com> - Per-model docs: `https://replicate.com/{owner}/{model}/llms.txt` - Set `Accept: text/markdown` when requesting docs pages for Markdown responses. ## Search - Use the search API (`GET /v1/search?query=...`) to find models by task.
