Python and Java SDKs take claude-haiku-5-5, typed computer and browser tool calls

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Anthropic · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

A single API spec change landed in both the Python and Java SDKs, added `claude-haiku-5-5` plus typed tool-call models for the computer and browser toolsets, and gave `/v1/models` lifecycle stage fields and filtering.

v1.12.0 anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python

by stainless-app[bot]

anthropic-sdk-python v1.12.0 adds claude-haiku-5-5 and typed computer and browser toolset tool calls, so tool-call payloads that were previously untyped now have concrete shapes to annotate against. It also adds a disabled field to thinking types in model capabilities.

v2.70.0 anthropics/anthropic-sdk-java

by anthropic-sdks-releaser[bot]

anthropic-sdk-java v2.70.0 exposes getters and builders on the structured output classes and now throws before sending a request whose path parameter is empty, turning a malformed server round-trip into a client-side failure. The release also notes that listing Claude Console spend limits is in early access.

feat(api): add lifecycle stage fields and filter to /v1/models anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python

by anthropic-sdks-writer[bot]

The Python SDK's /v1/models endpoint gained lifecycle stage fields and a corresponding filter, so callers can select models by stage instead of filtering client-side.

fix(client): send empty strings in query params and multipart forms anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python

by anthropic-sdks-writer[bot]

A client fix makes empty strings in query parameters and multipart forms get sent rather than dropped, which matters for any request where an empty value is meaningful.

by anthropic-sdk-publisher
