## Overview
The OpenAI API is the reference LLM API: chat completions, structured outputs, function calling, embeddings, image/audio models, and batch processing. The patterns here — message roles, JSON mode, tool definitions, streaming — transfer to most other providers, so fluency with this API pays beyond OpenAI itself.
This skill covers using the API well: message construction, structured outputs, function calling, embeddings, the right model for the job, and the cost/latency controls that keep bills sane.
## When to use
- Calling the OpenAI API (chat, structured outputs, tools).
- Designing function-calling / tool-use integrations.
- Getting reliable JSON from the model.
- Choosing models (flagship vs mini vs reasoning).
- Controlling cost and latency.
- Using embeddings for search/RAG.
