unwrap() (0baa902)Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0
api: beta files/skills namespaces use GA shapes; drop dated beta header pins (9df4565)
The beta Files and Skills namespaces (client.beta.files, client.beta.skills) no longer send the files-api-2025-04-14 / skills-2025-10-02 headers and return the same shapes as client.files / client.skills (with Beta-prefixed type names under anthropic.types.beta). Requests that still send those headers on raw HTTP keep receiving the beta shapes.
Changes in the beta namespaces:
client.beta.skills.delete() now deletes a Skill together with all of its versions (previously refused while any version existed). It returns BetaDeletedSkill (was SkillDeleteResponse).BetaSkill (container skill reference with skill_id, type, version) is renamed BetaContainerSkill; the request-side BetaSkillParams keeps its name. BetaSkill now names the Skill object returned by client.beta.skills.create() / retrieve() / list() (replacing SkillCreateResponse / SkillRetrieveResponse / SkillListResponse), and skill versions are BetaSkillVersion / BetaDeletedSkillVersion (replacing Version*Response).client.beta.files.list() returns SyncPageCursor[BetaFileMetadata] / AsyncPageCursor[BetaFileMetadata] (with data / next_page) and paginates with page= / ids= (was SyncPage / AsyncPage with data, has_more, first_id, last_id and before_id= / after_id=); iterating the result for auto-pagination is unchanged. BetaSkill uses display_name (was display_title, also the create() keyword) and latest_version_id (was latest_version), and BetaSkillVersion is addressed by its skver_… id (the Unix-timestamp version field is gone).Migration guides: Migrate from files-api-2025-04-14 · Migrate from skills-2025-10-02
