The weights download without sign-up under Apache-2.0, but every launch command trusts remote code, and no technical report or security contact is published.\n\n**OpenAI API.** Official OpenAPI document and an llms.txt index. Elevated errors across the API for about 5 hours 20 minutes on 29 September and about 90 minutes on 17 September 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Jais 3\n\n1. Start vLLM or SGLang with `--reasoning-parser k2_horizon`, and add `--tool-call-parser k2_horizon` (vLLM also `--enable-auto-tool-choice`) for tools, or tool calls come back as raw text\n2. Pass `reasoning_effort` (`high`, `medium` or `low`) and `tool_call_format` inside `chat_template_kwargs`. Other values return a template error\n3. Send each earlier assistant turn back with `reasoning_content` as a string, even an empty one. A missing or null thinking field makes the template raise an error\n4. Send your own system message, or set `default_system_prompt` to an empty string. Without one the template inserts an identity prompt naming IFM, Inception42 and Cerebras\n5. Budget at least 32,768 output tokens at `high` effort, which the cards recommend for every request\n\n### OpenAI API\n\n1. Build on the Responses API. Astra calls tools only there\n2. Use `gpt-6-luna` for routing and extraction and `gpt-6.1-sol` for most work. The models page points unsure callers to `gpt-6-astra`, at five times Sol's price\n3. Move off the GPT-4o and GPT-4.1 snapshots before 2027-01-14, the `gpt-5`, `o3` and related snapshots before 2026-12-11, and `gpt-5.1`, `gpt-5.3-codex` and `gpt-5.4-nano` before 2027-04-01. Check `shutdown_date` on `GET /v1/models`\n4. Treat 429 `slow_down` as a ramp limit and 503 `server_is_overloaded` as a retry, and follow `Retry-After` when it's sent\n5. Prompts over 272K tokens cost double on input. Trim before you pay for it\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Jais 3 or OpenAI API?\n\nOpenAI API scores 82.9 (A) on agent readiness against Jais 3's 51.7 (D), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.
