🔧 What Was Fixed

Critical Bug

TypeError: anthropicReq.system?.substring is not a function

Root Cause:

• Anthropic API allows system field to be string OR array of content blocks
• Claude Agent SDK sends it as array (for prompt caching)
• Proxy assumed string only → called .substring() on array → crash
• Result: 100% failure rate

Solution:

// Before (BROKEN)
interface AnthropicRequest {
  system?: string;
}

// After (FIXED)
interface AnthropicRequest {
  system?: string | Array<{ type: string; text?: string; [key: string]: any }>;
}

// Safe extraction logic
if (typeof anthropicReq.system === 'string') {
  originalSystem = anthropicReq.system;
} else if (Array.isArray(anthropicReq.system)) {
  originalSystem = anthropicReq.system
    .filter(block => block.type === 'text' && block.text)
    .map(block => block.text)
    .join('\n');
}
