# Claude Agent SDK Development

Claude Agent SDK Development helps you create a Claude Agent SDK skill from a prompt and refine it with official documentation. Use it when building or improving skills for Claude-based agents.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/majiayu000/claude-skill-registry/tree/main/skills/agent/36-anthropic-agents-kit-development ~/.claude/skills/36-anthropic-agents-kit-development
```

## README

# Build Your Claude Agent SDK Skill

Before learning Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK—the architecture behind Claude Code itself—you'll **own** a Claude Agent SDK skill.

---

## Step 1: Get the Skills Lab

1. Go to [github.com/panaversity/claude-code-skills-lab](https://github.com/panaversity/claude-code-skills-lab)
2. Click the green **Code** button
3. Select **Download ZIP**
4. Extract the ZIP file
5. Open the extracted folder in your terminal

```bash
cd claude-code-skills-lab
claude
```

---

## Step 2: Create Your Skill

Copy and paste this prompt:

```
Using your skill creator skill create a new skill for Claude Agent SDK
(Anthropic's agent framework). I will use it to build AI agents from
hello world to professional production systems. Use context7 skill to
study official documentation and then build it so no self assumed knowledge.
```

Claude will:
1. Fetch official Claude Agent SDK documentation via Context7
2. Ask you clarifying questions (tool patterns, subagent needs, hook requirements)
3. Create the complete skill with references and templates

Your skill appears at `.claude/skills/claude-agent-sdk/`.

---

## Done

You now own a Claude Agent SDK skill built from official documentation. The rest of this chapter teaches you what it knows—and how to make it better.
