gemini-3.6-flash is a multimodal large language model from Google’s Gemini family, in the lightweight “Flash” tier that prioritizes speed and low cost over peak reasoning depth. It is designed for responsive, high‑throughput applications such as chatbots, agents, UI copilots, and real‑time content generation, while still supporting capabilities like code, reasoning, and working with text and images. Within the Gemini lineup, Flash variants typically trade some advanced long‑form reasoning and top‑end performance for very low latency and efficient scaling in production systems. This makes gemini-3.6-flash well‑suited as a general‑purpose, cost‑effective model for interactive and large‑volume workloads.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
model | string, required | This model's ID, exactly as shown above. |
messages | array, required | Conversation history as role/content objects (system, user, assistant). |
temperature | number, optional | Sampling randomness, typically 0–2. |
max_tokens | integer, optional | Upper limit on tokens generated in the reply. |
top_p | number, optional | Nucleus-sampling threshold, as an alternative to temperature. |
stream | boolean, ignored | Responses are always returned in full so the exact cost can be billed; streaming is not available. |
