The Complete Guide to Building Agents with the Anthropic Agent SDK

Building AI agents with the Claude Agent SDK

If you've used Claude Code, you've seen what an AI agent can actually do—read files, run commands, edit code, figure out the steps to accomplish a task.

And you know it doesn't just help you write code, it takes ownership of problems and works through them the way a thoughtful engineer would.

The Claude Agent SDK is the same engine, yours to point at whatever problem you want, so you can easily build agents of your own.

The Claude Agent SDK is how you build that same thing into your own applications.
