📦 Installation

bash

npm install @robota-sdk/anthropic @robota-sdk/agents @anthropic-ai/sdk

🔧 Basic Usage

Simple Chat Integration

typescript

import { Robota } from '@robota-sdk/agents';
import { AnthropicProvider } from '@robota-sdk/anthropic';

// Create type-safe Anthropic provider
const provider = new AnthropicProvider({
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY!,
  model: 'claude-3-sonnet-20240229',
  maxTokens: 1000
});

// Create Robota agent with Anthropic provider
const agent = new Robota({
  name: 'ClaudeAgent',
  aiProviders: [provider],
  defaultModel: {
    provider: 'anthropic',
    model: 'claude-3-sonnet-20240229',
    systemMessage: 'You are Claude, an AI assistant created by Anthropic to be helpful, harmless, and honest.'
  }
});

// Execute conversation
const response = await agent.run('Explain the concept of artificial consciousness');
console.log(response);

// Clean up
await agent.destroy();

Streaming Responses

typescript

// Real-time streaming for immediate feedback
const stream = await agent.runStream('Write a comprehensive analysis of quantum computing principles');

console.log('Claude is thinking...\n');

for await (const chunk of stream) {
  if (chunk.content) {
    process.stdout.write(chunk.content);
  }
  
  // Handle streaming metadata
  if (chunk.metadata?.usage) {
    console.log(`\nTokens used: ${chunk.metadata.usage.totalTokens}`);
  }
  
  if (chunk.metadata?.isComplete) {
    console.log('\n✓ Response completed');
  }
}

🛠️ Function Calling

Anthropic Provider supports type-safe function calling with Claude's native tool use:

typescript

import { FunctionTool } from '@robota-sdk/agents';
import { z } from 'zod';

// Define research tool
const researchTool = new FunctionTool({
  name: 'web_search',
  description: 'Search the web for current information',
  parameters: z.object({
    query: z.string().describe('Search query'),
    domain: z.string().optional().describe('Specific domain to search'),
    limit: z.number().default(5).describe('Number of results to return')
  }),
  handler: async ({ query, domain, limit }) => {
    // Implement web search logic
    const results = await performWebSearch(query, domain, limit);
    return {
      query,
      results: results.map(r => ({
        title: r.title,
        url: r.url,
        snippet: r.snippet
      })),
      timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
    };
  }
});

// Analysis tool for complex data
const analysisTool = new FunctionTool({
  name: 'analyze_data',
  description: 'Perform statistical analysis on datasets',
  parameters: z.object({
    data: z.array(z.number()).describe('Numerical data to analyze'),
    analysisType: z.enum(['descriptive', 'correlation', 'regression']),
    confidence: z.number().default(0.95).describe('Confidence level for statistics')
  }),
  handler: async ({ data, analysisType, confidence }) => {
    // Implement statistical analysis
    const analysis = await performStatisticalAnalysis(data, analysisType, confidence);
    return {
      analysisType,
      results: analysis,
      confidence,
      dataPoints: data.length
    };
  }
});

// Register tools with agent
agent.registerTool(researchTool);
agent.registerTool(analysisTool);

// Execute with function calling
const result = await agent.run(`
  Research the latest developments in quantum computing, 
  then analyze the trend in quantum processor qubit counts over the last 5 years.
`);

🔄 Multi-Provider Architecture

Seamlessly integrate with other providers:

typescript

import { OpenAIProvider } from '@robota-sdk/openai';
import { GoogleProvider } from '@robota-sdk/google';

const claudeProvider = new AnthropicProvider({
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY!,
  model: 'claude-3-opus-20240229'
});

const openaiProvider = new OpenAIProvider({
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY!
});

const googleProvider = new GoogleProvider({
  apiKey: process.env.GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY!
});

const agent = new Robota({
  name: 'MultiProviderAgent',
  aiProviders: [claudeProvider, openaiProvider, googleProvider],
  defaultModel: {
    provider: 'anthropic',
    model: 'claude-3-opus-20240229'
  }
});

// Compare reasoning approaches
async function compareReasoningApproaches(problem: string) {
  const results = {};
  
  // Claude's analytical approach
  agent.setModel({ provider: 'anthropic', model: 'claude-3-opus-20240229' });
  results.claude = await agent.run(`Analyze this problem step-by-step: ${problem}`);
  
  // GPT-4's approach
  agent.setModel({ provider: 'openai', model: 'gpt-4' });
  results.gpt4 = await agent.run(`Solve this problem methodically: ${problem}`);
  
  // Gemini's approach
  agent.setModel({ provider: 'google', model: 'gemini-pro' });
  results.gemini = await agent.run(`Approach this problem systematically: ${problem}`);
  
  return results;
}

const comparison = await compareReasoningApproaches(
  'Design an efficient algorithm for real-time fraud detection in financial transactions'
);

import { RetryPlugin, ErrorHandlingPlugin } from '@robota-sdk/agents';

const agent = new Robota({
  name: 'RobustAgent',
  aiProviders: [provider],
  defaultModel: {
    provider: 'anthropic',

import { UsagePlugin, PerformancePlugin } from '@robota-sdk/agents';

const agent = new Robota({
  name: 'MonitoredAgent',
  aiProviders: [provider],
  defaultModel: {
    provider: 'anthropic',

    new UsagePlugin({
      trackTokenUsage: true,
      trackCosts: true,
      // Claude pricing (example rates)
      inputTokenCost: 0.000015,  // per input token
      outputTokenCost: 0.000075, // per output token
      budgetAlert: 50.00         // Alert at $50
    }),
    new PerformancePlugin({
      trackResponseTime: true,
      trackThroughput: true,

🔒 Security Best Practices

API Key Management

typescript

// ✅ Good: Environment variables
const client = new Anthropic({
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
});

// ✅ Good: Key validation
if (!process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY) {
  throw new Error('ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable is required');
}

// ❌ Bad: Hardcoded keys
const client = new Anthropic({
  apiKey: 'sk-ant-...' // Never do this!
});

Input Validation and Sanitization

typescript

// Validate and sanitize user inputs
const validateInput = (input: string): string => {
  if (typeof input !== 'string') {
    throw new Error('Input must be a string');
  }
  
  if (input.length > 10000) {
    throw new Error('Input too long');
  }
  
  // Remove potential injection attempts
  return input.replace(/<script|javascript:|data:/gi, '');
};

const userInput = validateInput(request.body.message);
const response = await agent.run(userInput);

📊 Performance Optimization

Token Management

typescript

// Optimize for token efficiency
const provider = new AnthropicProvider({
  client: anthropicClient,
  model: 'claude-3-haiku-20240307', // Most efficient model
  maxTokens: 500,                   // Limit response length
  temperature: 0.3                  // More deterministic responses
});

// Estimate token usage
const estimateTokens = (text: string): number => {
  // Rough estimation: ~4 characters per token
  return Math.ceil(text.length / 4);
};

Model Selection Strategy

Use claude-3-haiku-20240307 for simple, fast responses
Use claude-3-sonnet-20240229 for balanced performance
Use claude-3-opus-20240229 for complex reasoning tasks
