Claude API

A Claude Skill for building or reviewing Claude API and Anthropic SDK integrations with current model, streaming, tool, and migration guidance.

Overview

Use this reference when a task involves Claude or Anthropic API implementation details and needs provider-specific SDK verification instead of memory-based guesses.

What this Skill can do

  • Routes implementation work to language-specific Claude API guidance.
  • Calls out API drift around models, streaming, tool use, and parameter shapes.
  • Frames provider-boundary checks before editing code.

Best use cases

  • Checking Claude SDK usage before writing integration code.
  • Reviewing model or parameter migration work.
  • Separating Anthropic-specific implementation from other providers.

Not suitable for

  • OpenAI, Gemini, or provider-neutral API implementation work.
  • Answering current API questions without checking the source.
  • Storing API keys or credentials in SkillDex.

Inputs

  • Target language, existing API code, or intended Claude feature.
  • Provider boundary information from the repository or user request.
  • Relevant SDK or raw HTTP constraint.

Outputs

  • Provider-specific implementation guidance.
  • Migration or compatibility notes.
  • Verification steps for the target language.

Compatibility

Tools: Claude Code

Environments: Claude Code or compatible Skill runtime, Claude API or Anthropic SDK project

  • Requires a Claude/Anthropic API task, not another provider's SDK.
  • Implementation details should be verified against current official documentation.

SkillDex catalogs the reference and does not make API calls.

Safe example prompts

Review API usage

Use the Claude API reference to check this TypeScript integration for current Anthropic SDK patterns before editing it.

Plan a migration

Use the Claude API reference to identify migration risks before moving this project to a newer Claude model.

Installation / usage

Reference the upstream public Skill directory.

  1. 1Open the GitHub source directory for the Skill.
  2. 2Review the provider-boundary and language-detection rules before applying the guidance.
