| Managing Batch Jobs with Multi-Provider CLI | Learn how to create, list, cancel, and delete batch jobs using the unified Command Line Interface (CLI) across OpenAI and Anthropic providers. |
Using the Command Line Interface for Batch Jobs
The instructor CLI provides comprehensive functionalities for managing batch jobs across multiple providers with a unified interface. This multi-provider support allows users to leverage the strengths of different AI providers for their batch processing needs.
Supported Providers
- OpenAI: Utilizes OpenAI's robust batch processing capabilities with metadata support
- Anthropic: Leverages Anthropic's advanced language models with cancel/delete operations
The CLI uses a unified --provider flag for all commands, with backward compatibility for legacy flags.

Create From File with Metadata Support
You can create batch jobs directly from pre-formatted .jsonl files with enhanced metadata support:
$ instructor batch create-from-file --help
Usage: instructor batch create-from-file [OPTIONS]
Create a batch job from a file
╭─ Options ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ * --file-path TEXT File containing the │
│ batch job requests │
│ [default: None] │
│ [required] │
│ --model TEXT Model in format │
│ 'provider/model-name' │
│ (e.g., 'openai/gpt-5.4-mini', │
│ 'anthropic/claude-3-s… │
│ [default: │
│ openai/gpt-4o-mini] │
│ --description TEXT Description/metadata │
│ for the batch job │
│ [default: Instructor │
│ batch job] │
│ --completion-window TEXT Completion window for │
│ the batch job (OpenAI │
│ only) │
│ [default: 24h] │
│ --use-anthropic --no-use-anthropic [DEPRECATED] Use │
│ --model instead. Use │
│ Anthropic API instead │
│ of OpenAI │
│ [default: │
│ no-use-anthropic] │
│ --help Show this message and │
│ exit. │
╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯
Example usage with metadata:
# OpenAI batch with custom metadata
instructor batch create-from-file \
--file-path batch_requests.jsonl \
--model "openai/gpt-5-nano" \
--description "Email classification batch - production v2.1" \
--completion-window "24h"
# Anthropic batch
instructor batch create-from-file \
--file-path batch_requests.jsonl \
--model "anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022" \
--description "Text analysis batch"
For creating .jsonl files, you can use the enhanced BatchProcessor:
from instructor.batch import BatchProcessor
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Literal
class Classification(BaseModel):
label: Literal["SPAM", "NOT_SPAM"] = Field(
..., description="Whether the email is spam or not"
)
# Create processor
processor = BatchProcessor("openai/gpt-5-nano", Classification)
# Prepare message conversations
messages_list = [
[
{"role": "system", "content": "Classify the following email"},
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello there I'm a Nigerian prince and I want to give you money"}
],
[
{"role": "system", "content": "Classify the following email"},
{"role": "user", "content": "Meeting with Thomas has been set at Friday next week"}
]
]
# Create batch file
processor.create_batch_from_messages(
messages_list=messages_list,
file_path="batch_requests.jsonl",
max_tokens=100,
temperature=0.1
)
