gpt-5.6-terra

Run GPT-5.6 Terra in a hosted Python Task with structured output, web search and file inputs.

OpenAI's GPT-5.6 model that balances intelligence and cost. Features a 1.05M token context window, 128K max output, image understanding, and max reasoning effort. OpenAI documents additional native tools for this family, but qbash currently exposes the verified web search path only.

What GPT-5.6 Terra supports in qbash

  • Structured outputReplies as JSON that matches a schema you pass.
  • Web searchSearches the web while it answers.
  • Reasoning effort6 levels, from none to max.
  • Image inputReads WEBP, PNG, JPEG and GIF images.
  • Document inputReads PDF, TEXT, DOC, XLS, RTF and 7 more files.
  • Prompt cachingRepeated input is billed at the cached rate.

What is qbash?

qbash is where you build Tasks: Python programs that run a business process on managed infrastructure. Your code runs the steps and calls a model like GPT-5.6 Terra only at the ones that need judgment, with integrations, memory and files available in the same script.

A developer writes the Task once, and anyone on the team runs it from a form, on a schedule, from a webhook or from chat. Each Task is versioned and every run is logged.

Structured output with GPT-5.6 Terra in a Python Task

qbash.ai.raw calls GPT-5.6 Terra from a Task. Pass a JSON Schema as output_schema and the reply comes back as a Python dict that matches it, ready to route to a connector.

main.py
ticket = qbash.inputs.get("ticket")

triage = qbash.ai.raw(
    f"Summarize this support ticket and rate its urgency:\n\n{ticket}",
    model="gpt-5.6-terra",
    output_schema={
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
            "summary": {"type": "string"},
            "urgency": {"type": "string", "enum": ["low", "medium", "high"]},
        },
        "required": ["summary", "urgency"],
    },
)

# triage is a dict, e.g. {"summary": "...", "urgency": "high"}
if triage["urgency"] == "high":
    qbash.integrations.slack.create_message(
        channel="#support",
        text=triage["summary"],
    )

Reasoning effort with GPT-5.6 Terra

Set Effort to none, low, medium, high, xhigh and max in the prompt's Settings. The default is none. Higher effort spends more tokens on reasoning before the reply.
