Anthropic provides clear documentation for the Messages API and Claude models.

Use the official documentation to find model IDs and pricing. Do not use model strings from old blog posts. Old strings lead to errors.

Tool calling lets Claude request actions. These actions include HTTP calls, database queries, or internal functions. Your server executes these actions.

Follow these steps for safe tool use:

  • Define schemas for your tools.
  • Validate arguments before your server runs them.
  • Treat model output as untrusted data.
  • Parse the output in your own code to ensure machine-readable results.

Protect your integration with these habits:

  • Rotate your API keys regularly.
  • Log request IDs to help with support.
  • Monitor token usage to stay within your budget.
