# Anthropic Core Workflow A → Model Inference

## Overview
This skill redirects to `clade-model-inference` which covers streaming, vision, structured output, and all Messages API patterns.

## Prerequisites
- Completed `clade-install-auth` setup
- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` configured

## Instructions

### Step 1: Use claude-model-inference instead
This skill has been replaced. The primary Anthropic workflow is the Messages API, covered in full by `clade-model-inference`.

### Step 2: Key topics covered there
- Streaming responses with `client.messages.stream()`
- Vision — sending images to Claude
- Structured JSON output via system prompts
- Multi-turn conversations
- All Messages API parameters

## Output
- Redirected to `clade-model-inference`
- All Messages API patterns available there

## Error Handling
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| Skill not found | Run `clade-model-inference` directly |

## Examples
```typescript
// Use claude-model-inference for the full Messages API guide
import Anthropic from '@claude-ai/sdk';
const client = new Anthropic();
const stream = client.messages.stream({
  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
  max_tokens: 1024,
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }],
});
```
