Canonical models

A canonical model ID (a stable, provider-agnostic string like gpt-4o-2024-08-06 or claude-sonnet-4-6) is the model identifier you pass in API requests. You can also pass an alias — a shorter name that resolves to a canonical ID, such as claude-opus-4-5 (which resolves to claude-opus-4-5-20251101); each model’s aliases are listed in its directory entry. Auriko maintains a live model directory. It’s the authoritative source for all available models, their status, providers, and pricing.

Query model directory

GET /v1/directory/models returns every canonical model with full metadata: context window, pricing, capabilities, supported modalities, supported endpoints, and provider availability. The endpoint is public and doesn’t require authentication.

curl https://api.auriko.ai/v1/directory/models

import os
from auriko import Client

client = Client(
    api_key=os.environ["AURIKO_API_KEY"],
    base_url="https://api.auriko.ai/v1"
)

directory = client.models.list_directory()
for canonical_id, model in directory.models.items():
    print(canonical_id, model.display_name, len(model.providers), "providers")

import { Client } from "@auriko/sdk";

const client = new Client({
    apiKey: process.env.AURIKO_API_KEY,
    baseUrl: "https://api.auriko.ai/v1",
});

const directory = await client.models.listDirectory();
for (const [canonicalId, model] of Object.entries(directory.models)) {
    console.log(canonicalId, model.display_name, model.providers.length, "providers");
}

See the Model directory reference for the full response schema.

Query model catalog

GET /v1/registry/models returns a leaner list of canonical ID, author, status, and provider availability, without pricing details.

curl https://api.auriko.ai/v1/registry/models

import os
from auriko import Client

client = Client(
    api_key=os.environ["AURIKO_API_KEY"],
    base_url="https://api.auriko.ai/v1"
)

catalog = client.models.list_registry()
for model in catalog.models:
    print(model.id, model.providers)

import { Client } from "@auriko/sdk";

const client = new Client({
    apiKey: process.env.AURIKO_API_KEY,
    baseUrl: "https://api.auriko.ai/v1",
});

const catalog = await client.models.listRegistry();
for (const model of catalog.models) {
    console.log(model.id, model.providers);
}
