 !!! note
     When tools are specified in the request, vLLM includes tool definitions in the prompt by default, regardless of the `tool_choice` setting. To exclude tool definitions when `tool_choice='none'`, use the `--exclude-tools-when-tool-choice-none` option.
 
+## Constrained Decoding Behavior
+
+Whether vLLM enforces the tool parameter schema during generation depends on the `tool_choice` mode:
+
+| `tool_choice` value | Schema-constrained decoding | Behavior |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Named function | Yes (via structured outputs backend) | Arguments are guaranteed to be valid JSON conforming to the function's parameter schema. |
+| `"required"` | Yes (via structured outputs backend) | Same as named function. The model must produce at least one tool call. |
+| `"auto"` | No | The model generates freely. A tool-call parser extracts tool calls from the raw text. Arguments may be malformed or not match the schema. |
+| `"none"` | N/A | No tool calls are produced. |
+
+When schema conformance matters, prefer `tool_choice="required"` or named function calling over `"auto"`.
+
+### Strict Mode (`strict` parameter)
+
+The [OpenAI API](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/function-calling#strict-mode) supports a `strict` field on function definitions. When set to `true`, OpenAI uses constrained decoding to guarantee that tool-call arguments match the function schema, even in `tool_choice="auto"` mode.
+
+vLLM **does not implement** `strict` mode today. The `strict` field is accepted in requests (to avoid breaking clients that set it), but it has no effect on decoding behavior. In auto mode, argument validity depends entirely on the model's output quality and the parser's extraction logic.

+Tracking issues: [#15526](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/15526), [#16313](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/16313).

+

+
+#### Cohere Embed API request parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
+| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
+| `model` | string | Yes | Model name |
+| `input_type` | string | No | Prompt prefix key (model-dependent, see below) |
+| `texts` | list[string] | No | Text inputs (use one of `texts`, `images`, or `inputs`) |
+| `images` | list[string] | No | Base64 data URI images |
+| `inputs` | list[object] | No | Mixed text and image content objects |
+| `embedding_types` | list[string] | No | Output types (default: `["float"]`) |
+| `output_dimension` | int | No | Truncate embeddings to this dimension (Matryoshka) |
+| `truncate` | string | No | `END`, `START`, or `NONE` (default: `END`) |

+  }'
+```
+

+
+    ```json
+    {
+      "id": "embd-...",
+      "embeddings": {
+        "float": [
+          [0.012, -0.034, ...],
+          [0.056, 0.078, ...]
+        ]
+      },
+      "texts": ["Hello world", "How are you?"],
+      "meta": {
+        "api_version": {"version": "2"},
+        "billed_units": {"input_tokens": 12}
+      }
+    }
+    ```
+
+#### Mixed text and image inputs
+
+For multimodal models, you can embed images by passing base64 data URIs. The `inputs` field accepts a list of objects with mixed text and image content:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v2/embed" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384",
+    "inputs": [
+      {
+        "content": [
+          {"type": "text", "text": "A photo of a cat"},
+          {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:image/png;base64,iVBOR..."}}
+        ]
+      }
+    ],
+    "embedding_types": ["float"]
+  }'
+```
+
+#### Embedding types
+
+The `embedding_types` parameter controls the output format. Multiple types can be requested in a single call:
+
+| Type | Description |
+| ---- | ----------- |
+| `float` | Raw float32 embeddings (default) |
+| `binary` | Bit-packed signed binary |
+| `ubinary` | Bit-packed unsigned binary |
+| `base64` | Little-endian float32 encoded as base64 |
+
+```bash

+    "embedding_types": ["float", "binary"]
+  }'

+    {
+      "id": "embd-...",
+      "embeddings": {
+        "float": [[0.012, -0.034, ...]],
+        "binary": [[42, -117, ...]]
+      },
+      "texts": ["What is machine learning?"],
+      "meta": {
+        "api_version": {"version": "2"},
+        "billed_units": {"input_tokens": 8}
+      }
+    }
+    ```
+
+#### Truncation
+
+The `truncate` parameter controls how inputs exceeding the model's maximum sequence length are handled:
+
+| Value | Behavior |
+| ----- | --------- |
+| `END` (default) | Keep the first tokens, drop the end |
+| `START` | Keep the last tokens, drop the beginning |
+| `NONE` | Return an error if the input is too long |
+
+#### Input type and prompt prefixes
+
+The `input_type` field selects a prompt prefix to prepend to each text input. The available values
+depend on the model:
+
+- **Models with `task_instructions` in `config.json`**: The keys from the `task_instructions` dict are
+  the valid `input_type` values and the corresponding value is prepended to each text.
+- **Models with `config_sentence_transformers.json` prompts**: The keys from the `prompts` dict are
+  the valid `input_type` values. For example, `Snowflake/snowflake-arctic-embed-xs` defines `"query"`,
+  so setting `input_type: "query"` prepends `"Represent this sentence for searching relevant passages: "`.
+- **Other models**: `input_type` is not accepted and will raise a validation error if passed.
