ANTHROPIC SDK

MiniMax M2.5 hits 80.2% on SWE-bench Verified and plugs into the Anthropic SDK with two environment variables. Here is what you need to know before switching.

A practical architecture for multi-step Claude agents. Loop patterns, state management, error recovery, and the production gotchas that turn a five-step demo into a 20 percent success rate at scale.

The defensive patterns that keep Claude integrations alive in production. Retry shapes, backoff with jitter, circuit breakers, fallback chains, and the observability you need to debug at 3am.

How to ship Claude's Batch API in production. 50% cost savings, TypeScript SDK code, JSONL request format, and the async architecture gotchas that bite at 100k requests.

How to ship Claude's vision API in production. OCR, charts, UI audits, real cost numbers, TypeScript SDK code, and the gotchas that bite at 100k images a month.

A production guide to Claude's extended thinking mode. Real cost math, TypeScript SDK code, and the tasks where reasoning tokens are worth 3x the spend.

Build MCP servers that connect Claude to your databases, APIs, and tools. Architecture, TypeScript SDK code, debugging, and the production gaps the spec doesn't cover.

Cut Claude API spend by up to 90% with prompt caching. Real numbers, TypeScript SDK code, and the gotchas Anthropic's docs gloss over.

A production-grade RAG pipeline with Claude. Chunking that survives real documents, retrieval tuning that actually moves the needle, citation tracking, and the prompt caching trick that makes RAG cheap enough to ship.

Master tool use in the Claude API. Schema design, retry logic, multi-step loops, and the failure modes that only show up at 10k calls a day.
