SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Claude Agent SDK provides a structured framework for building autonomous agents, orchestration of tools and subagents, and managing multi-turn interactions with safety and cost controls. It enables planning, designing, implementing, debugging, and extending Claude-powered agents and MCP-driven tooling across TypeScript and Python.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Async iterator based query API to drive agent loops with streaming and structured outputs
  • Extensive configuration: tools, permissions, models, sessions, events, and plugins
  • Built-in tools and MCP integration; subagents, hooks, and streaming capabilities for complex workflows
  • Python and TS support; cross-language examples and references

Quick Start

Install the package and run a basic query to see streaming messages and cost reporting.
