Models overview

Note: Fork and clone this repository if needed

1. Create and activate a virtual environment

shell
python3 -m venv ~/.venvs/aienv
source ~/.venvs/aienv/bin/activate

2. Set your ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

shell
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=xxx

3. Install libraries

shell
uv pip install -U anthropic ddgs duckdb yfinance agno

4. Run basic Agent

  • Streaming on
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/basic_stream.py
  • Streaming off
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/basic.py

5. Run Agent with Tools

  • DuckDuckGo Search
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/tool_use.py

6. Run Agent that returns structured output

shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/structured_output.py

7. Run Agent that uses storage

shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/storage.py

8. Run Agent that uses knowledge

Take note that claude uses OpenAI embeddings under the hood, and you will need an OpenAI API Key

shell
export OPENAI_API_KEY=***
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/knowledge.py

9. Run Agent that uses memory

shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/memory.py

10. Run Agent that analyzes an image

shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/image_agent.py

11. Run Agent with Thinking enabled

  • Streaming on
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/thinking.py
  • Streaming off
shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/thinking_stream.py

12. Run Agent with Interleaved Thinking

shell
python cookbook/92_models/anthropic/financial_analyst_thinking.py

13. Adaptive Thinking with output_config

For Claude 4.6 models that support adaptive thinking, use output_config to control thinking depth via the effort parameter. Keep thinking and output_config as separate top-level parameters:

shell
python cookbook/90_models/anthropic/adaptive_thinking.py
python
from agno.models.anthropic import Claude

model = Claude(
    id="claude-sonnet-4-6",
    max_tokens=4096,
    thinking={"type": "adaptive"},
    output_config={"effort": "high"},
)

Valid effort values:

  • "low" - Most efficient, significant token savings
  • "medium" - Balanced approach with moderate savings
  • "high" - Default, high capability for complex reasoning
  • "max" - Absolute maximum capability (Opus 4.6 only)
