Anthropic plugin

The Anthropic plugin provides access to Anthropic’s Claude models in Go.

Configuration

import "github.com/firebase/genkit/go/plugins/anthropic"

g := genkit.Init(context.Background(), genkit.WithPlugins(&anthropic.Anthropic{}))

You must provide an API key from Anthropic. You can get an API key from the Anthropic Console. The plugin will automatically use the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable.

Supported Models

• claude-sonnet-4-5 - Claude Sonnet 4.5 with extended thinking support
• claude-sonnet-4 - Claude Sonnet 4
• claude-opus-4 - Claude Opus 4
• claude-3-5-haiku - Fast and efficient Claude 3.5 Haiku
• claude-3-haiku - Fastest Claude 3 model

Usage Example

import (
    "github.com/firebase/genkit/go/plugins/anthropic"
)

// Initialize Anthropic plugin
g := genkit.Init(ctx, genkit.WithPlugins(&anthropic.Anthropic{}))

// Use Claude for tasks requiring reasoning
model := anthropic.Model(g, "claude-sonnet-4-6")
resp, err := genkit.Generate(ctx, g,
    ai.WithModel(model),
    ai.WithPrompt("Analyze this complex problem step by step."),
)

Using Multiple Providers

You can use both OpenAI and Anthropic providers in the same application:

import (
    "github.com/firebase/genkit/go/plugins/compat_oai/openai"
    "github.com/firebase/genkit/go/plugins/anthropic"
)

oai := &openai.OpenAI{APIKey: "YOUR_OPENAI_KEY"}
claude := &anthropic.Anthropic{}

g := genkit.Init(ctx, genkit.WithPlugins(oai, claude))

// Use OpenAI for embeddings and tool-heavy tasks
openaiModel := oai.Model(g, "gpt-4o")
embedder := oai.Embedder(g, "text-embedding-3-large")

// Use Anthropic for reasoning and analysis
claudeModel := anthropic.Model(g, "claude-sonnet-4-6")

Advanced Features

Multimodal Support

Claude models support vision capabilities:

// Works with Claude models
resp, err := genkit.Generate(ctx, g,
    ai.WithModel(model),
    ai.WithMessages(
        ai.NewUserMessage(
            ai.NewTextPart("What do you see in this image?"),
            ai.NewMediaPart("image/jpeg", imageData),
        ),
    ),
)

Streaming

Claude models support streaming responses:

resp, err := genkit.Generate(ctx, g,
    ai.WithModel(model),
    ai.WithPrompt("Write a long explanation."),
    ai.WithStreaming(func(ctx context.Context, chunk *ai.ModelResponseChunk) error {
        for _, content := range chunk.Content {
            fmt.Print(content.Text)
        }
        return nil
    }),
)

Configuration

Anthropic models support specific configuration options provided by the Anthropic SDK:

import "github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-go"

config := &anthropic.MessageNewParams{
    Temperature: anthropic.Float(0.7),
    MaxTokens:   anthropic.Int(1000),
    TopP:        anthropic.Float(0.9),
}

resp, err := genkit.Generate(ctx, g,
    ai.WithModel(model),
    ai.WithPrompt("Your prompt here"),
    ai.WithConfig(config),
)
