The SDK bundles Claude code and uses it for its agentic work. The SDK really only lets you control the UI layer. It als doesn’t yet fully support plan mode.

I use the SDK in my app and it works fine with plan mode. I don't deal with auth at all. I detect if the CLI is installed and it just reuses whatever auth the user has already setup. Works fine.

Isn't this what they just explicitly banned?
no, they banned use of the model without the CLI harness/SDK when using the subscription plans. Opencode was spoofing requests as if they were coming from claude code CLI, and controlling the agent loop / tool call totally internally. Anthropic wants subscription plans to use the CLI/SDK.
