  title: Claude Batch Process and Retrieve Results
  summary: Submit a message batch, poll until it ends, then retrieve the JSONL results.
  description: >-
    The canonical asynchronous batch flow. The workflow submits a batch of
    message-creation requests for processing, polls the batch's status on a loop
    until its processing_status becomes ended (batches can take up to 24 hours
    and are billed at a 50 percent discount), and then retrieves the results as
    a JSONL stream. Polling uses a retry loop with a delay, and a branch routes
    the flow to result retrieval only once the batch has ended. Every step
    spells out its request inline — including the required x-api-key and
    anthropic-version headers — so the flow can be read and executed without
    opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
