Claude Platform CLI

The ant CLI provides access to the Claude API from your terminal. Every API resource is exposed as a subcommand, with output formatting, response filtering, and support for YAML or JSON file input that make it practical for both interactive exploration and automation. Compared to calling the API with curl, ant lets you build request bodies from typed flags or piped YAML rather than hand-written JSON, inline file contents into string fields with an @path reference, and extract fields from the response with a built-in --transform query (no separate JSON tooling required). List endpoints paginate automatically. Claude Code understands how to use ant natively.
