Capabilities
What can you do with Claude API?
Build against current Claude API behavior, not stale assumptions.
Use this plugin when implementing Claude calls, streaming, tool loops, Files API, batches, or managed-agent patterns in a supported language.
- Route examples to the project's programming language.
- Verify SDK methods against current documentation.
- Implement streaming and tool-use control flow.
- Use Files API and message batches where appropriate.
- Handle authentication, errors, retries, and output requirements.
Cover major SDKs
Language-specific references keep examples aligned with the conventions and capabilities of each supported SDK.
Treat API drift explicitly
The workflow warns that training knowledge may be stale and requires current documentation checks for unstable details.
Practical workflow
From application requirement to verified Claude integration
Pass 01 / Resolve
Choose language and API pattern
Identify the project language, required model behavior, streaming needs, tools, files, and operational constraints.
Pass 02 / Implement
Build and test the real loop
Use current SDK syntax, handle errors and tool calls, protect credentials, and exercise realistic success and failure cases.

Installation
Copy the complete Claude API package
Sparse-clone the plugin directory and load it in a compatible client. The package provides guidance and references; it does not install credentials or an API runtime.
Terminal · Git sparse checkout
git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/chenmiaohero/Portable-Agent-Plugins.git
cd Portable-Agent-Plugins
git sparse-checkout set plugins/claude-apiKeep API keys in approved secret storage.
Verify SDK details against current official docs.
Test rate limits, errors, and tool-call loops.

What this plugin does
Claude API helps implement Claude-powered applications across major SDK languages. It covers current syntax checks, streaming, tool use, Files API, message batches, managed-agent patterns, error handling, and output requirements.
Practical workflow
Identify the project's language and required API behavior first. Verify unstable SDK details against current official Anthropic documentation, then implement authentication, messages, streaming or tool loops, retries, and realistic failure handling.
Safety and currency
Never place API keys in prompts or source control. API and SDK details can change after model training, so current official documentation remains authoritative. Test rate limits, malformed tool output, network failures, and cancellation.
Source
This portable package is maintained in chenmiaohero/Portable-Agent-Plugins from a pinned Apache-2.0 upstream Skill.
