claude-code-sdk-python is the Python SDK for Claude Code, Anthropic’s agentic coding system. It provides abstractions to easily query Claude Code (with streaming support) and conduct interactive sessions. The SDK includes core client classes, asynchronous query functions, and support for custom tools and hooks within Claude sessions. It is designed to integrate with local Python workflows and allow developers to embed Claude Code capabilities directly in their applications or scripts. The repo is MIT-licensed and includes documentation and installation instructions (requires Python 3.10+, Node installation of Claude Code). Example usage shows how to stream responses, parse structured message blocks, or create persistent client sessions.
