This integration is only for
Agent tracing. If you are looking for the Anthropic integration with the AI gateway, please see the
Anthropic integration.
The Anthropic Agent SDK enables you to build agentic workflows powered by Claude. Keywords AI provides a TypeScript/JavaScript exporter that automatically captures and sends traces from the Anthropic Agent SDK to Keywords AI for monitoring, debugging, and optimization.
Quickstart
Install the exporter, then configure it to send traces to Keywords AI.
Prerequisites
npm install @respan/exporter-anthropic-agents
Set up your environment variables:
RESPAN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEYWORDSAI_API_KEY
RESPAN_BASE_URL=https://api.keywordsai.co
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|
RESPAN_API_KEY | Yes | Your Keywords AI API key |
RESPAN_BASE_URL | No | Base URL for Keywords AI. Defaults to https://api.keywordsai.co. Pass as endpoint constructor param with /api/v1/traces/ingest appended. |
If you are on the enterprise platform, please use your enterprise endpoint as the base URL.
Hello World example
import { RespanAnthropicAgentsExporter } from "@respan/exporter-anthropic-agents";
const exporter = new RespanAnthropicAgentsExporter();
for await (const message of exporter.query({
prompt: "Review this repository and summarize architecture.",
options: {
allowedTools: ["Read", "Glob", "Grep"],
permissionMode: "acceptEdits",
},
})) {
console.log(message);
}
Using a custom endpoint
const baseUrl = process.env.RESPAN_BASE_URL || "https://api.keywordsai.co";
const exporter = new RespanAnthropicAgentsExporter({
endpoint: `${baseUrl}/api/v1/traces/ingest`,
});
Configuration
All configuration can also be passed directly to the constructor, which takes priority over environment variables:
const exporter = new RespanAnthropicAgentsExporter({
apiKey: "your_keywordsai_key", // Overrides RESPAN_API_KEY
endpoint: "https://api.keywordsai.co/api/v1/traces/ingest", // Full ingest endpoint URL
timeoutMs: 15000,
maxRetries: 3,
baseDelaySeconds: 1,
maxDelaySeconds: 30,
});
