chinaapi_get_model — Get one model by its exact ID: base URL and endpoints, the Standard and Paid price snapshot per meter with the time it was read and the price-book versions, context window and modalities, capability contract, limits, and ChinaAPI links (model page, a start link to try it, the agents guide).
chinaapi_get_recipe — Get a runnable request for one model — endpoint, headers, JSON body or multipart form, a curl command, and for video the polling step — exactly as ChinaAPI's /agents page shows it.
chinaapi_list_models — List the models ChinaAPI serves, optionally filtered by capability, task, maker or a model-ID substring.
