System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Developers need to invoke Claude's CLI for advanced language tasks, but managing subprocesses, billing, and API keys is cumbersome and error‑prone.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Wraps the claude binary as an async generator, enabling streaming responses.
  • Provides high‑level helpers like query, collectResult, and createConversation for single‑turn and multi‑turn interactions.
  • Supplies tool permission patterns, settings builders, and plugin scaffolding to customize agent behavior.
  • Ideal for Node.js applications that require AI‑driven code generation, data extraction, or interactive chat without exposing API credentials.

Quick Start

Ask the SDK to query Claude with a prompt, for example “Explain async iterators”, and stream the response.
