The official Python SDK for accessing the Anthropic Claude API. It provides a typed client for creating messages, streaming responses, and other Claude API operations from Python applications.

Use cases

  • call the Claude API from Python
  • send chat messages to Claude models
  • stream Claude responses in a Python app
  • integrate Anthropic LLMs into a backend service
  • build a chatbot using Claude

When to choose

  • you want official, maintained access to the Claude API in Python
  • you need typed clients, streaming, and retries for Anthropic endpoints

When to avoid

  • you need a provider-agnostic LLM abstraction across multiple vendors
  • you are not using Python
