Reference SDK Check

When implementing SDK features or debugging provider-specific issues, check reference implementations.

When to Use

• Implementing SDK features

• Debugging provider-specific issues

• Understanding how other libraries solve similar problems

• "How does Vercel AI SDK do X?"

• "Check Anthropic SDK for Y"

Commands

Use btca ask to check how reference SDKs implement similar features:

Check Vercel AI SDK for streaming patterns

btca ask -r vercel-ai -q "How does streamObject work?"

Check Anthropic SDK for tool calling

btca ask -r anthropic-sdk -q "How are tools defined and called?"

Check Zod for validation patterns

btca ask -r zod -q "How does safeParse handle errors?"

Configured Resources

• vercel-ai

• Streaming, tool calling, structured output

• anthropic-sdk

• Anthropic API patterns

• zod

• Schema validation

Add more: btca config resources add -n <name> -t git -u <url> -b <branch>

When to Check

• Before implementing - See how others solved similar problems

• When debugging - Find how reference code handles edge cases

• Multi-provider support - Compare implementations across SDKs

• Validation patterns - Check idiomatic approaches

Don't Use For

• Documentation lookups (use /nia-docs instead)

• Simple API questions (use WebSearch)

• Project-specific patterns (use Grep/Glob)
