Seed Character

The June Character release adds reasoning and visual input. The older November 2025 release remains listed for text and tool use.

Technical guide

The June release lists structured output. The November release does not list reasoning. Select the dated model instead of assuming both Character versions accept the same inputs.Volcano Engine current model catalog

Practical use

Practical guidance. Keep character instructions separate from user messages. For a visual character assistant, check whether it describes the actual image while maintaining the required voice.
