- Use provider model ID "Qwen/Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Thinking", not the LLMReference slug "qwen3-next-80b-a3b-thinking".
- Together uses "organization/model-name" format, e.g. "meta-llama/Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E-Instruct" or "Qwen/QwQ-32B". See the Together model catalog for the exact ID.
- The examples expect TOGETHER_API_KEY; rename it only if your application config maps the new variable.
