# Moondream 3 Preview [Query] API

> ပုံတစ်ပုံအကြောင်း လွတ်လပ်စွာ မေးထားသော မေးခွန်းကို ဖြေပြီး အဆင့်လိုက် အကြောင်းပြချက်ထွက်ရလဒ်ကို ရွေးချယ်နိုင်သည်

`prompt` မှတစ်ဆင့် `image_url` ထဲရှိ ပုံအကြောင်း မေးခွန်းမေးပြီး စာသားအဖြေကို ပြန်ပေးသည်။ မူလအတိုင်း ဖွင့်ထားသော `reasoning` အလံက အဖြေနောက်ကွယ်ရှိ ဆင်ခြင်တွေးခေါ်မှုကိုလည်း ပြန်ပေးသည်။ `temperature` နှင့် `top_p` တို့ကို 0 နှင့် 1 ကြားတွင် ချိန်ညှိနိုင်သည်။

- Model id: `moondream3-preview/query`
- Made by: Moondream
- Category: Vision
- Output: text
- Estimated price per run: $0.001 / run (cheapest run $0.001 (1 API credit))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/moondream3-preview/query`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/moondream3-preview/query`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/my/developers/models/moondream3-preview/query

## Pricing

Price: **$0.001 / run**. Estimated from the typical cost of one run. The quote is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.001 = 1 API credit (1 request × 1 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/moondream3-preview/query` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | လုပ်ဆောင်မည့် ပုံသို့ ညွှန်ပြသော URL။ |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  | ≥ 1 characters | ပုံနှင့်ပတ်သက်၍ မေးမည့် မေးခွန်း။ |
| `reasoning` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | အဖြေတွင် အသေးစိတ်ကျိုးကြောင်းဆင်ခြင်မှု ပါဝင်မည်၊ မည်ကို ထိန်းချုပ်သည်။ |
| `temperature` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | 0 မှ 1 အထိရှိသော နမူနာရွေးချယ်မှု အပူချိန်၊ မထည့်လျှင် မူလတန်ဖိုးမှာ 0 ဖြစ်သည်။ 0.8 ကဲ့သို့ ပိုမြင့်သောတန်ဖိုးသည် ကျပန်းဖြစ်နိုင်မှုကို တိုးစေပြီး 0.2 ကဲ့သို့ ပိုနိမ့်သောတန်ဖိုးသည် ပိုမိုအာရုံစိုက်ပြီး သတ်မှတ်နိုင်သော ထွက်ရလဒ်ကို ထုတ်ပေးသည်။ |
| `top_p` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | 0 မှ 1 အထိရှိသော nucleus sampling အတွက် ဖြစ်နိုင်ခြေထုထည်။ |

File parameters (`image`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/moondream3-preview/query?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/moondream3-preview/query?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/moondream3-preview/query", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "moondream3-preview/query",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
