What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors in connectors/anthropic/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Purpose

Check that the user's Anthropic API key works and list the models available to it (id, display name). Read-only by design: this skill never spends credits; it ships no message, token-count, or other billable calls.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/anthropic.py:

bin/anthropic.py models    # list models available to this key (id, display_name)

Auth

  • Provider id: anthropic (credential is collected as custom.anthropic)
  • Collection: API key via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access): create one at console.anthropic.com
  • Connect placement: custom_header:x-api-key (Anthropic uses x-api-key, not Authorization: Bearer)
  • Allowed hosts: api.anthropic.com
  • Status check: bin/anthropic.py models (a successful list proves the key works)

Note: every request also carries the required anthropic-version: 2023-06-01 header, set by bin/anthropic.py.

Operating Rules

  1. This skill is read-only. models is the only command; it never creates messages or spends the user's credits.
  2. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/anthropic.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the key value.
