Claude Agent SDK
Anthropic's framework for building agents on the same harness that powers Claude Code, with file and shell tools, subagents, hooks, MCP and permission controls, in Python and TypeScript.
- 01The Claude Code agent loop as a library
- 02Subagents, hooks and permission modes
- 03MCP tools and custom tools
- 04Runs via the Claude API, Bedrock, Vertex or Foundry
[ How we use it ]
We build agents on the Claude Agent SDK when the work looks like what a capable engineer or analyst does at a computer: reading files, running commands and checking results. It runs through the client's own cloud when their data must stay there.
