764764## Client-side fallback with the SDK middleware
765765 
766Every Anthropic SDK includes a refusal-fallback middleware. You configure it once on the client with your list of fallback models. Calls through `client.beta.messages` (csharp, go: `client.Beta.Messages`; java: `client.beta().messages()`; php: `$client->beta->messages`) then retry refused requests automatically, on any platform. The middleware also sends the `fallback-credit-2026-07-01` beta header on every request it handles, so retries are repriced without per-request setup.
