Pattern
The Claude Agent SDK
Embed Claude Code's agent loop inside an application through the Agent SDK, constructing sessions programmatically — with the same tools, permissions, and CLAUDE.md context as the CLI — so the agent becomes a component of a larger system rather than a tool a human drives.
Classification — The agent loop as a library for embedding in applications.
