Anthropic CLI
The ant CLI provides terminal access to the Claude API. Every API resource is exposed as a subcommand. It is the recommended way to keep agents, environments, skills, memory stores and deployments as version-controlled files (ant apply - see shared/anthropic-cli.md), and also exposes sessions and every other API resource for scripting and interactive inspection.
| Topic | URL | Extraction Prompt |
|---|---|---|
| Anthropic CLI | https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/cli-sdks-libraries/cli/quickstart.md |
"Extract CLI install, authentication, command structure, and sending a first request" |

Claude API SDK Repositories
WebFetch these when a binding (class, method, namespace, field) isn't covered in the cached {lang}/ skill files or in the managed-agents docs above. The SDKs include beta managed-agents support for /v1/agents, /v1/sessions, /v1/environments, and related resources - search the repo for BetaManagedAgents, beta.agents, beta.sessions, or the equivalent namespace for that language.
| SDK | URL | Extraction Prompt |
|---|---|---|
| Python | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python |
"Extract beta managed-agents namespaces, classes, and method signatures (client.beta.agents, client.beta.sessions)" |
| TypeScript | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-typescript |
"Extract beta managed-agents namespaces, classes, and method signatures (client.beta.agents, client.beta.sessions)" |
| Java | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-java |
"Extract beta managed-agents classes, builders, and method signatures (client.beta().agents(), BetaManagedAgents*)" |
| Go | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-go |
"Extract beta managed-agents types and method signatures (client.Beta.Agents, BetaManagedAgents* event types)" |
| Ruby | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-ruby |
"Extract beta managed-agents methods and parameter shapes (client.beta.agents, client.beta.sessions)" |
| C# | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-csharp |
"Extract beta managed-agents classes and method signatures (NuGet package, BetaManagedAgents* types)" |
| PHP | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-php |
"Extract beta managed-agents classes and method signatures ($client->beta->agents, BetaManagedAgents* params)" |
Each SDK repo also ships runnable programs under examples/ - including the refusal-fallback / fallbacks examples (client-side middleware registration, fallback state, server-side fallbacks param). Fetch those for exact per-language syntax instead of translating another language's example.
SDK major-version upgrade guides
Authoritative change lists for upgrading the SDK package itself across a major version. The bundled {lang}/claude-api/sdk-upgrade.md is the executable form; when the two disagree, the repository guide wins.
| SDK | URL | Extraction Prompt |
|---|---|---|
| Python (0.x -> 1.x) | https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python/blob/main/MIGRATION.md |
"Extract every breaking change with its before/after code, the new minimum Python version, and the upgrade command" |
Fallback Strategy
If WebFetch fails (network issues, URL changed):
- Use cached content from the language-specific files (note the cache date)
- Inform user the data may be outdated
- Suggest they check platform.claude.com or the GitHub repos directly
