Claude Agent SDK

ai

Anthropic’s software development kit for building AI agents powered by Claude. The SDK provides capabilities for tool use, multi-step reasoning, context management, and autonomous task execution.

shiftagent adapts the Claude Agent SDK from its CLI origins to a cloud-native environment, wrapping it behind an Agent Runtime Interface abstraction layer. This enables agents to run as managed cloud services with session persistence, tenant isolation, and enterprise-grade security — while preserving the full reasoning and tool-use capabilities of the underlying Claude model.
