examples/arithmetic_calc.py— a self-contained example demonstrating how to build a simple arithmetic calculator using Claude's tool use feature.The example defines four tools (
add,subtract,multiply,divide) and runs an agentic loop that lets Claude chain multiple operations to evaluate an expression. Key design decisions:_AB_SCHEMAconstant eliminates schema duplication across the three tools with identical signaturestool_usestop reason (handlesend_turn,max_tokens,refusal, etc.) rather than only exiting onend_turn, avoiding an infinite loop on unexpected stop reasons_run_toolhandles divide-by-zero and unknown tool names explicitlyfrom anthropic import Anthropic,ToolParam/MessageParamtype annotations)
