## Node parameters

* **Model**: Select the model that generates the completion. Choose from:
	* **Claude**
	* **Claude Instant**

Learn more in the [Anthropic model documentation](https://docs.anthropic.com/claude/reference/selecting-a-model).

## Node options

* **Maximum Number of Tokens**: Enter the maximum number of tokens used, which sets the completion length.
* **Sampling Temperature**: Use this option to control the randomness of the sampling process. A higher temperature creates more diverse sampling, but increases the risk of hallucinations.
* **Top K**: Enter the number of token choices the model uses to generate the next token.
* **Top P**: Use this option to set the probability the completion should use. Use a lower value to ignore less probable options.
