orq:search_models tool searches the Orq.ai model catalog during a response. It is useful when a model needs to choose another model based on context length, tool support, vision support, or input cost.
Results come from the public model registry. They are not filtered to models enabled in the current workspace.
Quick start
The examples use the client configuration from the Server tools overview.Configuration
Model-supplied filters
The model can combine these filters in a tool call:
Results are sorted by model ID and include model costs, context length, and capability flags.
Cost and usage
Catalog searches have no additional charge. The number of searches appears atusage.server_tool_use.search_models_requests.
Pair this tool with Subagent when the calling model should select a worker model before delegating a task.
