Agentic Claude

Agentic Claude goes beyond question-answering. Claude can plan, call tools, observe results, and act again — running multi-step workflows autonomously. This section covers everything from the Claude API tool use schema to full multi-agent architectures.

In This Section

What is Agentic Claude

Definition — tool use, multi-step reasoning, and autonomy within the Claude API.

Tool Use & Function Calling

Defining tools in the Claude API — the schema, how Claude decides when to call tools, and handling results.

Building a Simple Agent

A minimal agent loop using the Anthropic SDK: plan, act, observe, repeat.

Multi-Agent Systems

Orchestrator and subagent patterns via the Claude API — handoffs, parallelism, and state management.

Agent Frameworks with Claude

LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI — how to set Claude as the backbone LLM in popular frameworks.

Agent Safety & Guardrails

Scope limits, human-in-the-loop confirmation gates, sandboxing, and failure handling.
