Documentation correction: top_k is silently disabled at low temperature
  • top_k has no effect unless temperature is 0.001 or above. Below that threshold, including when you omit temperature entirely, top_k is forced to 1 and decoding is greedy. A request carrying top_k: 40 and no temperature returns argmax, and nothing in the response says the value was ignored
  • Measured on gemma-4-31B-it, 8 runs of one prompt: top_k: 40 without temperature gave 1 distinct output, the same request with temperature: 1.0 gave 8
  • Documented the defaults applied when you omit a sampling parameter: temperature 0.0, top_p 1.0, top_k 1048576, repetition_penalty 1.0
  • top_k must be 1 or greater. -1 and 0 are rejected with a 400 on /v1/chat/completions and /v1/messages. They are accepted on /v1/responses, which does not validate the lower bound, but they do not mean “unrestricted” anywhere. The API reference stated a maximum of 100 for top_k; no upper bound is enforced
  • The byte-identical output you get when you omit temperature is not a pinned seed. It is the forced top_k of 1. Do not rely on it across releases
  • Documented why MiniMax-M2.7 samples while the other models decode greedily: on the MiniMax bundles only, unset sampling parameters are backfilled from the checkpoint’s own generation_config.json
  • Action: set temperature explicitly before you tune top_k. See How top_k interacts with temperature
Platform maintenance release: vision tool calling, reasoning token counts, error envelope
  • Vision requests now support tools and structured output. gemma-4-31B-it honours tools, tool_choice and response_format on requests that carry an image. The constraint is applied during generation. See Vision
  • Reasoning token counts are reported on every EU model. Read usage.completion_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens to budget and bill reasoning separately from the visible answer. It was previously null on gemma-4-31B-it. See Counting reasoning tokens
  • Malformed image data returns HTTP 400, not 500. This is a permanent error. Do not retry it
  • Errors use a consistent JSON envelope, with two exceptions. The response carries a request_id you should quote in every support report. A malformed image and an unhonoured forced tool_choice still return a flat shape where error is a string. See API error codes
  • Streaming tool calls on gpt-oss-120b are clean. No reasoning scaffolding leaks into delta.content. Note that the same model adds a channel field to the delta on streams with no tools - ignore delta fields you do not recognise. See Streaming tool calls
  • Documentation corrections: the audio page listed stream_options as an accepted parameter. The endpoint rejects it with HTTP 400. response_format honours only json and text; verbose_json, srt and vtt are accepted but return plain text. See Audio

Documentation correction: temperature has no default
  • The API reference stated a default temperature of 0.7 on /v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses. That default does not exist. The claim is removed from the OpenAPI spec and from every page that repeated it
  • Omit temperature and gemma-4-31B-it, gpt-oss-120b, DeepSeek-V3.2, and Meta-Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct decode greedily. MiniMax-M2.7 samples. The same applies on /v1/chat/completions, /v1/responses, and /v1/messages
  • Greedy decoding is the setting most likely to send a reasoning model into a non-terminating repetition loop, so requests that set no sampling parameters were exposed to the failure the docs warned about
  • /v1/messages differs from the Anthropic API, which documents a temperature default of 1.0. Code ported from the Anthropic SDK switches to greedy decoding unless you set the parameter
  • Action: set temperature explicitly on every request. See If you omit temperature

November 17, 2025

We are pleased to announce the launch of Infercom’s documentation portal. This comprehensive documentation has been created based on SambaNova’s documentation (dated October 7, 2025) and adapted for Infercom’s EU sovereign AI inference platform. Key features
  • Complete API reference documentation with OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
  • Developer guides for integrating with Infercom’s inference platform.
  • Model catalog and configuration documentation for all supported models.
  • Platform architecture and deployment guides.
  • Usage examples in Python and TypeScript, powered by OpenAI-compatible SDKs.
All documentation will be continuously updated to reflect Infercom-specific features, European data sovereignty capabilities, and platform enhancements as they become available.
