What this shortlist means
The inclusion rules are visible and intentionally narrow.
- 01
Inclusion rule
The model has an explicit Chinese capability or use-case tag.
- 02
Inclusion rule
The provider application profile remains active.
- 03
Inclusion rule
The model page exposes the exact API ID for a repeatable test.
Important limit: A Chinese capability tag does not establish quality for your domain and does not prove availability from any particular country or region. Test your own prompts and check provider terms.
