AssistantMessage

@Serializable

@SerialName(value = "assistant")

class AssistantMessage(val content: String?, val name: String? = null, val prefix: Boolean? = null, val reasoningContent: String? = null, val toolCalls: List<ToolCall>? = null) : ChatMessage

Assistant-role message — a model response, whether produced by the API or replayed as context.

The same class travels in both directions, which is what makes the tool-calling loop a plain list append: take the message off a ChatChoice and put it straight back into the next request.

val first = client.chat(params, messages)
val call = first.choices.single().message.toolCalls?.single()
val next = messages +
    first.choices.single().message +
    ToolMessage(runTool(call), call.id)

Constructors

AssistantMessage

constructor(content: String?, name: String? = null, prefix: Boolean? = null, reasoningContent: String? = null, toolCalls: List<ToolCall>? = null)

Properties

content

val content: String?

Assistant message text; null when the message only carries toolCalls.

name

val name: String?

Optional participant name forwarded to the model.

prefix

val prefix: Boolean?

When true, marks this message as a partial assistant response that the model should continue generating from. Prefix completion is only served from the beta base path: a request ending in such a message is routed to beta/chat/completions automatically, so the client needs no extra configuration.

reasoningContent

val reasoningContent: String?

Chain-of-thought that precedes content in thinking mode. On a response it is what the model thought; on a request it seeds the continuation, and so takes effect only alongside prefix = true.

toolCalls

val toolCalls: List<ToolCall>?

Tool calls the model emitted on this turn, or null if none. Answer each one with a ToolMessage carrying the matching ToolCall.id.
