The Agent API added the GPT-5.6 family and Grok 4.5 in July, following a steady stream of new models and the May-launched finance_search tool.

Financial data in the Agent API — The finance_search tool pulls structured market data on demand for public companies and instruments:

• Near-real-time prices and OHLCV ranges, including pre-market and after-hours data
• Income statements, balance sheets, cash flow (quarterly and annual), and key ratios
• Earnings call transcripts, filings, and beat/miss history
• Analyst estimates, top gainers/losers, and ownership and corporate actions

Third-party model support expanded — The Agent API added new models across three months, all with direct first-party token pricing:

• May 2026: Claude Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.5 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite, and Grok 4.3 family
• June 2026: Claude Sonnet 5, GLM 5.2, Kimi K2.7 Code, and Nemotron 3 Super
