  • Works in 3 steps: Basic Message → Add a System Prompt → Multi-Turn Conversation

What it does

Clade Hello World is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Send your first message to Claude using the Anthropic SDK. Use when starting a new Claude integration, testing your setup, or learning the Messages API basics. Trigger with phrases like "anthropic hello world", "claude api example", "first claude call", "anthropic quick start".

Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/one-pager.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering LLM API integration and Integration testing. It works with Anthropic API. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Starting a new Claude integration
  • Testing your setup
  • Learning the Messages API basics
  • With phrases like anthropic hello world

Example prompts

  • “anthropic hello world”
  • “claude api example”
  • “first claude call”
  • “/clade-hello-world”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Basic Message
  2. Add a System Prompt
  3. Multi-Turn Conversation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript and python).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • platform.claude.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Clade Hello World loads about 873 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 160 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~873
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Anthropic Hello World

Overview

Send your first message to Claude and get a response using the Messages API.

Prerequisites

  • Completed clade-install-auth setup
  • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable set

Instructions

Step 1: Basic Message
typescript
import Anthropic from '@claude-ai/sdk';

const client = new Anthropic();

const message = await client.messages.create({
  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
  max_tokens: 1024,
  messages: [
    { role: 'user', content: 'What is the capital of France?' }
  ],
});

console.log(message.content[0].text);
// "The capital of France is Paris."
Step 2: Add a System Prompt
typescript
const message = await client.messages.create({
  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
  max_tokens: 1024,
  system: 'You are a helpful geography expert. Be concise.',
  messages: [
    { role: 'user', content: 'What is the capital of France?' }
  ],
});
Step 3: Multi-Turn Conversation
typescript
const message = await client.messages.create({
  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
  max_tokens: 1024,
  messages: [
    { role: 'user', content: 'What is the capital of France?' },
    { role: 'assistant', content: 'The capital of France is Paris.' },
    { role: 'user', content: 'What is its population?' },
  ],
});

Python Example

python
import anthropic

client = anthropic.Anthropic()

message = client.messages.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"}
    ],
)
print(message.content[0].text)

Output

  • message.content[0].text — Claude's text response
  • message.model — model ID used
  • message.usage.input_tokens / message.usage.output_tokens — token counts
  • message.stop_reason — end_turn, max_tokens, or tool_use
