Anthropic has introduced Claude Code, an agentic command-line tool for code generation, refactoring, and debugging that operates directly within a project's codebase. Complementing this is the Agent SDK, a framework designed for building multi-agent applications by providing pre-built components for agentic loops, orchestration, and tool calling. For direct model access, the Claude API offers programmatic HTTP access for tasks like data extraction and content generation. These tools are unified by the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standard that enables clients like Claude Code and the Agent SDK to connect to external databases and services through a single, reusable interface.
