# Release: llm-anthropic 0.27 Source: [https://simonwillison.net/2026/Aug/24/llm-anthropic/](https://simonwillison.net/2026/Aug/24/llm-anthropic/) This release of the Anthropic plugin for[LLM](https://llm.datasette.io/)mainly provides compatibility with the recently released[anthropic v1\.0\.0](https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python/releases/tag/v1.0.0)Python library, which switches from`httpx`to[httpx2](https://github.com/pydantic/httpx2)\. OpenAI made the same change in their[v3\.0\.0 release](https://github.com/openai/openai-python/releases/tag/v3.0.0)two weeks ago\. Anthropic provide this[migration guide](https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python/blob/v1.0.0/MIGRATION.md)for upgrading to 1\.0, so I prompted Fable 5 in Claude Code with: > `Upgrade to anthropic\>=1 \- read https://raw\.githubusercontent\.com/anthropics/anthropic\-sdk\-python/refs/heads/main/MIGRATION\.md and get the tests passing` Here's[the resulting PR](https://github.com/simonw/llm-anthropic/pull/84)\.
