Can I use Anthropic as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Anthropic CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Anthropic through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Anthropic tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Anthropic credentials stored?

Anthropic credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Anthropic MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Anthropic CLI for CI

Run integration calls from CI jobs with JSON output, explicit credentials, and predictable exit status.

Use this shape when a pipeline needs to read or update an external service. The Anthropic CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Anthropic CLI for CI
kosmokrator integrations:configure anthropic --set api_key="$ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call anthropic.anthropic_list_messages '{"model":"example_model","limit":1,"before_id":"example_before_id","after_id":"example_after_id"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Anthropic docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs anthropic --json
kosmo integrations:docs anthropic.anthropic_list_messages --json
kosmo integrations:schema anthropic.anthropic_list_messages --json
kosmo integrations:search "Anthropic" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

`anthropic.anthropic_get_model`	Read	id	Get detailed information about a specific Anthropic model, including its display name, creation date, and capabilities.
`anthropic.anthropic_list_workspaces`	Read	limit, before_id, after_id	List Anthropic workspaces. Returns workspace identifiers, names, and configuration details.

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
