The Anthropic Admin API lands in the SDKs and `ant` CLI

What's this about?

Administrative operations — managing members, workspaces and API keys, and reading your organisation's rate limits — are now available through the SDKs and the `ant` command-line tool rather than only a web console.

What exactly is an "admin API"?

Two different surfaces. The regular API is for asking the model things; the admin API is for managing the account around it. Putting administration behind an API means it can be scripted and version-controlled — onboarding, key rotation and deprovisioning become code instead of clicks, which is what security teams want when the number of keys grows.

Reaction is from platform teams, and the most-noted item is reading your org's rate limits programmatically — currently a common source of mystery failures, since an application that cannot see its own ceiling cannot back off gracefully.
