Agent-SDK without CLI dependencies, as an alternative to claude-agent-sdk, completely open source
Open Agent SDK (TypeScript) is a Node.js library published as `@codeany/open-agent-sdk` that runs the full Claude agent loop directly in-process, replacing the official `claude-agent-sdk` without requiring any subprocess or CLI invocation. It connects to Claude through the Anthropic API, with the model name driving automatic backend detection, and also supports OpenAI-compatible endpoints such as OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Qwen, and Mistral through the same `createAgent` or `query` interface. Developers can define custom tools using either Zod schemas or a low-level `defineTool` helper, attach them inline or via an embedded MCP server created with `createSdkMcpServer`, and chain multi-turn conversations with persistent session state. Five built-in skills (simplify, commit, review, debug, test) act as reusable prompt templates, and a hook registry exposes 20 lifecycle events including `PreToolUse`, `SubagentStart`, and `PostCompact` for fine-grained control. The library targets backend engineers and DevOps teams deploying agents in cloud, serverless, Docker, or CI/CD environments without desktop tooling.
