Version 1.2.0

1. ResponsesAPI

• Unified function/endpoint combining chat simplicity with tool use and state management.
• Out-of-the-box tool support - It natively supports first-party tools like web_search, file_search, and computer_use, enabling you to invoke these capabilities without additional orchestration.
• Built-in multi-turn conversation chaining-  Use the previous_response_id parameter to link requests into a chain of turns, and the instructions parameter to inject or override system/developer messages on a per-call basis.
• Multimodal input and output - Beyond text, the API accepts images and audio in the same request, letting you build fully multimodal, tool-augmented experiences in a single call.
