Reviewer scorecard
“First-party SDK with excellent TypeScript support. Tool use and streaming work flawlessly. The agent loop is well-designed.”
“Clean UI, open source, and supports every protocol. The git-based sync is useful for teams.”
“Using the official SDK reduces risk of breaking changes. The agent patterns are production-tested by Anthropic themselves.”
“Lighter than Postman and open source. For most API development needs, it's the right balance of features.”
“Anthropic's approach to safe, capable agents sets the standard. The SDK makes best practices the default path.”
“Functional but the UI isn't remarkable. It gets the job done without inspiring joy.”
