多轮对话

Messages API 是无状态的,这意味着您总是需要向 API 发送完整的对话历史。您可以使用这种模式来逐步构建对话。早期的对话轮次不一定需要真正来自 Claude — 您可以使用合成的 assistant 消息。

#!/bin/sh
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages \
     --header "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \
     --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
     --header "content-type: application/json" \
     --data \
'{
    "model": "claude-opus-4-20250514",
    "max_tokens": 1024,
    "messages": [
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"},
        {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hello!"},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Can you describe LLMs to me?"}

    ]
}'
JSON
{
    "id": "msg_018gCsTGsXkYJVqYPxTgDHBU",
    "type": "message",
    "role": "assistant",
    "content": [
        {
            "type": "text",
            "text": "Sure, I'd be happy to provide..."
        }
    ],
    "stop_reason": "end_turn",
    "stop_sequence": null,
    "usage": {
      "input_tokens": 30,
      "output_tokens": 309
    }
}

为 Claude 预填回复

您可以在输入消息列表的最后位置预填 Claude 回复的一部分。这可以用来塑造 Claude 的回复。下面的示例使用 "max_tokens": 1 来从 Claude 获得单个选择题答案。

#!/bin/sh
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages \
     --header "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \
     --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
     --header "content-type: application/json" \
     --data \
'{
    "model": "claude-opus-4-20250514",
    "max_tokens": 1,
    "messages": [
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is latin for Ant? (A) Apoidea, (B) Rhopalocera, (C) Formicidae"},
        {"role": "assistant", "content": "The answer is ("}
    ]
}'
JSON
{
  "id": "msg_01Q8Faay6S7QPTvEUUQARt7h",
  "type": "message",
  "role": "assistant",
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "C"
    }
  ],
  "model": "claude-opus-4-20250514",
  "stop_reason": "max_tokens",
  "stop_sequence": null,
  "usage": {
    "input_tokens": 42,
    "output_tokens": 1
  }
}
