--- title: Versions url: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/python/skills/versions --- # Versions ## Create Skill Version `skills.versions.create(skill_id, **kwargs) -> SkillVersion` **POST** `/v1/skills/{skill_id}/versions` Create Skill Version ### Parameters - `skill_id: str` (path parameter) Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time. - `files: Sequence[FileTypes]` Files to upload for the skill. All files must be in the same top-level directory and must include a SKILL.md file at the root of that directory. - `workspace_id: Optional[str]` (header parameter) Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, `wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy`). Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace. ### Returns - `class SkillVersion` - `type: Literal["skill_version"]` Object type. For Skill Versions, this is always `"skill_version"`. default: skill_version - `id: str` Unique identifier for this Skill Version. The id addresses the version in paths and pins it in references. - `created_at: datetime` ISO 8601 timestamp of when the skill was created. format: date-time - `description: str` Description of the skill version. This is extracted from the SKILL.md file in the skill upload. - `name: str` The Skill's immutable kebab-case slug, set at creation from the first upload's SKILL.md frontmatter `name` (or its enclosing directory). Every later upload must resolve to the same value. Also the top-level directory of the Skill's mounted files and the base name of a downloaded archive. - `skill_id: str` Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time. ### Example ```python import os from anthropic import Anthropic client = Anthropic( api_key=os.environ.get( "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" ), # This is the default and can be omitted ) skill_version = client.skills.versions.create( skill_id="skill_id", files=[b"Example data"], ) print(skill_version.id) ``` #### Response (200) ```json { "id": "id", "created_at": "2024-10-30T23:58:27.427722Z", "description": "description", "name": "name", "skill_id": "skill_01JAbcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw", "type": "skill_version" } ``` ## List Skill Versions `skills.versions.list(skill_id, **kwargs) -> SyncPageCursor[SkillVersion]` **GET** `/v1/skills/{skill_id}/versions` List Skill Versions ### Parameters - `skill_id: str` (path parameter) Unique identifier for the skill.

Defaults to `20`. default: 20, minimum: 1, maximum: 1000 - `page: Optional[str]` (query parameter) Optionally set to the `next_page` token from the previous response. - `workspace_id: Optional[str]` (header parameter) Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, `wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy`). Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace. ### Returns - `class SkillVersion` - `type: Literal["skill_version"]` Object type.

This is extracted from the SKILL.md file in the skill upload. - `name: str` The Skill's immutable kebab-case slug, set at creation from the first upload's SKILL.md frontmatter `name` (or its enclosing directory). Every later upload must resolve to the same value. Also the top-level directory of the Skill's mounted files and the base name of a downloaded archive. - `skill_id: str` Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time. ### Example ```python import os from anthropic import Anthropic client = Anthropic( api_key=os.environ.get( "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" ), # This is the default and can be omitted ) page = client.skills.versions.list( skill_id="skill_id", ) page = page.data[0] print(page.id) ``` #### Response (200) ```json { "data": [ { "id": "id", "created_at": "2024-10-30T23:58:27.427722Z", "description": "description", "name": "name", "skill_id": "skill_01JAbcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw", "type": "skill_version" } ], "next_page": "next_page" } ``` ## Get Skill Version `skills.versions.retrieve(version, **kwargs) -> SkillVersion` **GET** `/v1/skills/{skill_id}/versions/{version}` Get Skill Version ### Parameters - `skill_id: str` (path parameter) Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time. - `version: str` (path parameter) Identifies the skill version: a version ID, or the literal `latest` for the skill's most recent version. Requests carrying the `skills-2025-10-02` beta header address versions by their Unix epoch timestamp instead (e.g., "1759178010641129"). - `workspace_id: Optional[str]` (header parameter) Optional header to select the Workspace for this request.
