anthropic-agent-sdk 0.2.75

# Claude Agent SDK for Rust

Rust SDK for building AI agents powered by Claude Code. Mirrors the [TypeScript Claude Agent SDK](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/typescript) with idiomatic Rust patterns.

## Installation

**Prerequisites:**
- Rust 1.85.0+ (edition 2024)
- Node.js
- Claude Code 2.0.75+: `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code`

```toml
[dependencies]
anthropic-agent-sdk = "0.2"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["rt-multi-thread", "macros"] }
```

## Quick Start

```rust
use anthropic_agent_sdk::{query, Message, ContentBlock, StreamExt};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let stream = query("What is 2 + 2?", None).await?;
    let mut stream = Box::pin(stream);

    while let Some(message) = stream.next().await {
        if let Message::Assistant { message, .. } = message? {
            for block in &message.content {
                if let ContentBlock::Text { text } = block {
                    println!("{}", text);
                }
            }
        }
    }
    Ok(())
}
```

## Development

```bash
cargo build
cargo test
cargo clippy
cargo doc --open
```

## Security

The SDK implements strict security measures:

- **Environment variables**: Dangerous vars (LD_PRELOAD, PATH, etc.) cause errors
- **CLI arguments**: Only allowlisted flags permitted, others rejected
- **Session binding**: Auto-binds on first Result, validates on send
- **Buffer limits**: Configurable max buffer size (default 1MB)
- **100% safe Rust**: No unsafe code

See [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) for full documentation.

## OAuth Authentication

For Claude Max/Pro subscribers, authenticate without API keys:

```rust
use anthropic_agent_sdk::auth::OAuthClient;

let client = OAuthClient::new()?;
let token = client.authenticate().await?;
// Token is cached in platform-specific config directory
```

See `oauth_demo` example for full usage including status check and logout.
