## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Anthropic's Claude Haiku 5.5 specifically for high-volume, latency-sensitive, or cost-sensitive workloads such as batch summarization, classification, subagent decisions, or coding tasks — and you want pay-per-call pricing via x402 micropayment without managing an Anthropic API subscription. Prefer Claude Opus or Sonnet endpoints for complex reasoning or very long context tasks.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not settled — 402 returned before inference runs
- Input messages array missing or malformed — validation error
- Token limit exceeded for the model's context window
- Tool call schema invalid — function definitions malformed
- Streaming requested but connection dropped mid-SSE stream
- Model unavailable or upstream Anthropic outage — 503 or timeout

## How this service works
