     `id_slot`: Assign the completion task to an specific slot. If is -1 the task will be assigned to a Idle slot.  Default: `-1`
 
-    `cache_prompt`: Re-use KV cache from a previous request if possible. This way the common prefix does not have to be re-processed, only the suffix that differs between the requests. Because (depending on the backend) the logits are **not** guaranteed to be bit-for-bit identical for different batch sizes (prompt processing vs. token generation) enabling this option can cause nondeterministic results. Default: `false`

     `samplers`: The order the samplers should be applied in. An array of strings representing sampler type names. If a sampler is not set, it will not be used. If a sampler is specified more than once, it will be applied multiple times. Default: `["dry", "top_k", "typ_p", "top_p", "min_p", "xtc", "temperature"]` - these are all the available values.
