# Anthropic CI Integration
## Overview
Testing Claude integrations in CI requires handling API keys securely, mocking for unit tests, and making real calls only in integration tests.
## GitHub Actions Setup
```yaml
# .github/workflows/test.yml
name: Test Claude Integration
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
test:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: actions/setup-node@v4
with:
node-version: 20
- run: npm ci
# Unit tests — no API key needed (mocked)
- run: npm run test:unit
# Integration tests — real API calls
- run: npm run test:integration
env:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
```
## Mock Strategy for Unit Tests
```typescript
// tests/helpers/mock-anthropic.ts
import { vi } from 'vitest';
export function mockAnthropicClient() {
return {
messages: {
create: vi.fn().mockResolvedValue({
id: 'msg_mock',
type: 'message',
role: 'assistant',
model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Mock response' }],
stop_reason: 'end_turn',
usage: { input_tokens: 10, output_tokens: 5 },
}),
stream: vi.fn().mockReturnValue({
async *[Symbol.asyncIterator]() {
yield { type: 'content_block_delta', delta: { type: 'text_delta', text: 'Mock' } };
},
finalMessage: vi.fn().mockResolvedValue({ usage: { input_tokens: 10, output_tokens: 5 } }),
}),
},
};
}
// In your test:
import { mockAnthropicClient } from './helpers/mock-anthropic';
test('summarize function returns text', async () => {
const client = mockAnthropicClient();
const result = await summarize(client, 'Some long text...');
expect(result).toBe('Mock response');
expect(client.messages.create).toHaveBeenCalledWith(
expect.objectContaining({ model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514' })
);
});
```
## Integration Test (Real API)
```typescript
// tests/integration/claude.test.ts
import Anthropic from '@claude-ai/sdk';
import { describe, test, expect } from 'vitest';
describe('Claude API Integration', () => {
const client = new Anthropic(); // Uses ANTHROPIC_API_KEY env var
test('messages.create returns valid response', async () => {
const message = await client.messages.create({
model: 'claude-haiku-4-5-20251001', // Cheapest for CI
max_tokens: 50,
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Say "test passed" in 2 words.' }],
});
expect(message.content[0].type).toBe('text');
expect(message.stop_reason).toBe('end_turn');
expect(message.usage.output_tokens).toBeGreaterThan(0);
}, 30_000); // 30s timeout for API calls
});
```
## Cost Control in CI
| Strategy | How |
|----------|-----|
| Use Haiku only | Cheapest model, fast |
| Limit max_tokens | `max_tokens: 50` for validation tests |
| Skip on PRs from forks | Don't expose API key to untrusted code |
| Run integration tests only on main | `if: github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'` |
| Budget cap | Set spending limits in Anthropic console |
## Output
- GitHub Actions workflow running unit tests (mocked, no API key needed)
- Integration tests making real Claude API calls on main branch
- Mock client returning realistic response shapes for unit tests
- CI costs controlled via Haiku model and tight max_tokens
## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| API Error | Check error type and status code | See `clade-common-errors` |
## Examples
See GitHub Actions YAML, Mock Strategy with Vitest, Integration Test with real API, and Cost Control table above.
