# List models

> Model names the evaluate endpoint accepts on this deployment

The models `POST /judge/evaluate` will accept.

**Do not hardcode these names.** The list is the deployment's, not a constant — it changes when the judge service changes. Responses are cached for 5 minutes, so polling it to populate a picker is free.

## Request

### Headers

<ParamField header="Authorization" type="string" required>
  Bearer token — **your standard 60db API key** (`sk_…`), or a user JWT. There is no separate Judge credential.
</ParamField>

## Response

<ResponseField name="data.models" type="array">
  Each entry has `name`, `description` and `release_date`. Aliases such as `jev-latest` resolve server-side to a versioned id, which is what the evaluate response reports back as `model`.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="data.cached" type="boolean">
  Whether this response came from the 5-minute cache.
</ResponseField>
