# Agent.getModel()

The `.getModel()` method retrieves the language model configured for an agent, resolving it if it's a function. This method is used to access the underlying model that powers the agent's capabilities.

## Usage example

```typescript
await agent.getModel()
```

## Parameters

**options** (`{ requestContext?: RequestContext }`): Optional configuration object containing request context. (Default: `{}`)

**options.requestContext** (`RequestContext`): Request Context for dependency injection and contextual information.

## Returns

**model** (`MastraLanguageModel | Promise<MastraLanguageModel>`): The language model configured for the agent, either as a direct instance or a promise that resolves to the model.

## Extended usage example

```typescript
await agent.getModel({
  requestContext: new RequestContext(),
})
```
