  - `workspace_id?: string` (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

- `interface BetaSkillVersion`

  - `type: "skill_version"`

    Object type.

    For Skill Versions, this is always `"skill_version"`.

    default: skill_version

  - `id: string`

    Unique identifier for this Skill Version. The id addresses the version in
    paths and pins it in references.

  - `created_at: string`

    ISO 8601 timestamp of when the skill was created.

    format: date-time

  - `description: string`

    Description of the skill version.

    This is extracted from the SKILL.md file in the skill upload.

  - `name: string`

    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: string`

    Unique identifier for the skill.

    The format and length of IDs may change over time.

#### Example

```typescript
import Anthropic from "@anthropic-ai/sdk";

const client = new Anthropic({
  apiKey: process.env["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] // This is the default and can be omitted
});

const betaSkillVersion = await client.beta.skills.versions.retrieve("version", {
  skill_id: "skill_id"
});

console.log(betaSkillVersion.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"
}
```

### Delete Skill Version

`client.beta.skills.versions.delete(version, params, options?): BetaDeletedSkillVersion`

**DELETE** `/v1/skills/{skill_id}/versions/{version}`

Delete Skill Version

#### Parameters

- `version: string` (path parameter)

  Identifies the skill version by its version ID.

  Requests carrying the `skills-2025-10-02` beta header address versions by their Unix epoch timestamp instead (e.g., "1759178010641129").

- `params: VersionDeleteParams`

  - `skill_id: string` (path parameter)

    Unique identifier for the skill.

    The format and length of IDs may change over time.

  - `betas?: Array<AnthropicBeta>` (header parameter)

    Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use.
