Agent Patterns, covering multi-agent orchestration, tops the taxonomy of the new site, which replaces the anthropic-cookbook GitHub repo.
Why now: The relaunch had reached 316 points on Hacker News as of July 25.
Anthropic moved its Claude Cookbook off GitHub and onto platform.claude.com, doubling the recipe count past 100, per the new site.
Developers lose the informal GitHub repo, which held around 50 examples, but gain a documented, contributable reference built around a year of Claude releases.
The new taxonomy covers the Claude Agent SDK, Managed Agents, extended thinking, programmatic tool calling, prompt caching, and batching. It adds domain tracks for cybersecurity, observability, and incident response, plus Skills recipes for working with Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files.
Agent Patterns leads that taxonomy: multi-agent systems, workflows, and orchestration recipes sit ahead of every other category, per the site.
That ordering is the tell. Anthropic built its name on a single chat API, and its own recipe hierarchy puts coordinating multiple agents ahead of everything else it documents. Watch whether the next wave of Claude Agent SDK docs assumes multi-agent orchestration as the starting point rather than an advanced topic.
The relaunch had reached 316 points on Hacker News as of July 25.
