## Connect

Connect to a persistent Responses API WebSocket. Send `response.create` events to create responses and `response.steer` events to queue user input containing text, images, or files for a continuation. Receive response stream events and steering acceptance, pending, or failure events over the socket.

**WebSocket** `wss://api.openai.com/v1/responses`
