Proposal: Seed Parameter; Exists on Chat Completions API and Critical for "Reproducible Outputs" by OpenAI's Own Documentation #59

Description

@sciafri

As outlined and highlighted by OpenAI's api documentation and cookbook links below, the seed parameter that exists in chat.completions API does not exist in responses API. This seems like a fairly large oversight given it's importance to having "reproducible" (or more so) outputs.

https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/advanced-usage
https://developers.openai.com/cookbook/examples/reproducible_outputs_with_the_seed_parameter

I propose this critical request parameter be included in the Open Responses API spec; similarly for the system_fingerprint as part of the response parameters (will open a separate ticket).
