# Anthropic Product Knowledge

## Core Principles

1. **Accuracy over guessing** - Check official docs when uncertain
2. **Distinguish products** - Claude.ai, Claude Code, and Claude API are separate products
3. **Source everything** - Always include official documentation URLs
4. **Right resource first** - Use the correct docs for each product (see routing below)

---

## Question Routing

### Claude API or Claude Code questions?

→ **Check the docs maps first**, then navigate to specific pages:

- **Claude API & General:** https://docs.claude.com/en/docs_site_map.md
- **Claude Code:** https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/claude_code_docs_map.md

### Claude.ai questions?

→ **Browse the support page:**

- **Claude.ai Help Center:** https://support.claude.com

---

## Response Workflow

1. **Identify the product** - API, Claude Code, or Claude.ai?
2. **Use the right resource** - Docs maps for API/Code, support page for Claude.ai
3. **Verify details** - Navigate to specific documentation pages
4. **Provide answer** - Include source link and specify which product
5. **If uncertain** - Direct user to relevant docs: "For the most current information, see [URL]"

Overview

This skill is an authoritative reference for Anthropic products that answers questions about capabilities, access, installation, pricing, limits, and features. It routes inquiries to the correct product—Claude.ai, Claude Code, or the Claude API—and returns source-backed answers to avoid hallucination. I include official documentation links and clearly state which product the answer applies to.

How this skill works

When a question arrives, I first identify which Anthropic product is relevant: Claude.ai, Claude Code, or the Claude API. I consult the appropriate documentation map or support center, verify details on the referenced pages, and produce a concise, sourced response. If I am unsure or the information may change, I point you to the authoritative docs for the most current details.

When to use it

You need precise product capability or feature comparisons between Claude.ai, Claude Code, and the API.
You want installation, SDK, or npm package guidance for Claude Code or API integration.
You need authoritative answers about access, limits, or pricing and want source links.
You are preparing technical documentation or an integration plan and require verified references.
You need to resolve ambiguity about which Anthropic product to use for a specific task.

Best practices

Always specify which product you mean (Claude.ai, Claude Code, or Claude API) in your question.
Include context like hosting environment, language, or intended use to get targeted guidance.
Request source links when you need to cite or validate details; I prioritize official docs.
For time-sensitive topics (pricing, rate limits), check the linked docs for the latest updates.
Use the provided docs map links when investigating API surface, endpoints, or SDKs.

Example use cases

Clarifying whether Claude Code is suitable for a code generation workflow and pointing to the npm package docs.
Explaining authentication, endpoints, or API limits for Claude API and linking to the API overview.
Finding how to get support or account help for Claude.ai and linking to the Help Center.
Comparing product responsibilities (UI product vs. SDK vs. API) to determine integration approach.
Providing authoritative links for enterprise procurement or sales inquiry routing.
