Expand description

Response from an LLM operation.

Contains the model’s output along with metadata about the request. Check tool_calls first - if non-empty, the model wants to call functions rather than provide a final response.

§Basic Response

use multi_llm::Response;

// Standard text response
println!("Response: {}", response.content);

// Check token usage
if let Some(usage) = &response.usage {
    println!("Used {} tokens", usage.total_tokens);
}

§Tool Calling Response

use multi_llm::Response;

// Check if model wants to call tools
if !response.tool_calls.is_empty() {
    for call in &response.tool_calls {
        println!("Tool: {} with args: {}", call.name, call.arguments);
        // Execute tool and return result...
    }
}

§Structured Response

use multi_llm::Response;

// When using execute_structured_llm
if let Some(json) = &response.structured_response {
    let name = json["name"].as_str().unwrap_or("unknown");
    println!("Extracted name: {}", name);
}

§Note on Trait Implementations

This type intentionally omits Serialize, Deserialize, and PartialEq:

  • structured_response contains arbitrary serde_json::Value that may not round-trip cleanly
  • raw_body is provider-specific debug data not meant for serialization
  • Equality comparison on JSON values can be surprising (object key ordering, number precision)

If you need to serialize responses, extract the specific fields you need.

Fields§

§content: String

Primary text content of the response.

For standard requests, this is the model’s natural language output. May be empty if the model only returned tool calls.

§structured_response: Option<Value>

Parsed JSON when using structured output.

Populated when using LlmProvider::execute_structured_llm() with a schema. Contains the parsed JSON that (should) match the requested schema.

§tool_calls: Vec<ToolCall>

Tool calls the model wants to execute.

If non-empty, the model is requesting function calls rather than providing a final answer. Execute the tools and continue the conversation.

§usage: Option<TokenUsage>

Token usage statistics for this request.

May be None if the provider doesn’t report usage or if the request failed.

§model: Option<String>

The model that generated this response.

Useful when the provider might use different models than requested (e.g., fallback models or model aliases).

§raw_body: Option<String>

Raw response body for debugging.

Contains the unprocessed JSON response from the provider API. Useful for debugging parsing issues or accessing provider-specific fields.
