Claude Agent SDK: Build AI Agents That Actually Take Action
Visit the Docusign Developer Center and start building for free: https://developers.docusign.com/?utm_campaign=AWA_FY27Q2&utm_medium=influencer-program&utm_source=Leon ℹ️ Note on availability: The Docusign MCP server is currently in open beta. Chatbots that just answer questions are obsolete. In this video I show you my complete workflow for building agent-ready applications with the Claude Agent SDK: a real AI agent that lives inside your web app, calls MCP tools, takes actions on the user's behalf, and keeps a human in the loop with a proper permissions layer. You'll learn the three components every real agent needs (the brain, the tools, and the permissions layer), how to wire up the Claude Agent SDK with Opus 5, how to connect any remote MCP server to your app via OAuth, and how to build feature by feature with any coding agent (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Codex). As the working example, I build an agreement management agent using the Docusign MCP server, but the same workflow applies to any MCP-powered agent you want to ship. 🎁 Get the resources from this video + my free AI builder course: https://skool.com/leonvanzyl 🚀 Go deeper inside Agentic Labs: AI coding courses, live Q&A, weekly challenges, and direct access to me: https://skool.com/agentic-labs =========================== Resources Mentioned =========================== - Docusign MCP server docs (beta): https://developers.docusign.com/platform/mcp-server/?utm_campaign=AWA_FY27Q2&utm_medium=influencer-program&utm_source=Leon - Project source code, prompts folder, and NDA PDF template (GitHub): https://github.com/leonvanzyl/docusign-agreement-manager - Start An App skill (install with npx skills add leonvanzyl/skills): https://github.com/leonvanzyl/skills - Playwright MCP server setup: https://playwright.dev/docs/getting-started-mcp - Claude Agent SDK: https://docs.claude.com/en/api/agent-sdk/overview =========================== Watch This Next =========================== ▶️ Claude Code Advanced Workflow, Build & Ship Real Apps: https://youtu.be/zVZotTk6ZWU 📺 Docusign Developers on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DocusignDevs =========================== Tools I Use / Support the Channel =========================== 🚀 Speech to Text (Wisprflow): https://wisprflow.ai/r?LEON114 =========================== Subscribe / Connect =========================== Subscribe for practical AI building, agentic coding, automation, and real app builds: https://www.youtube.com/@leonvanzyl?sub_confirmation=1 X: https://x.com/leonvz TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@leonvanzylofficial Business & sponsorship enquiries: leon@cognaitiv.ai =========================== Question =========================== What agreement or approval workflow would you hand over to an AI agent first? ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 Why Chatbots Are Not Enough 0:23 Brain Tools And Permissions 1:32 Agreement Agent Live Demo 3:49 What We Are Building 4:08 Agent Architecture And Stack 5:36 Docusign MCP Server Beta 5:58 Setting Up Claude Code 6:26 Install Playwright MCP Server 7:08 Install Start An App Skill 8:17 Scaffolding The App Shell 9:12 Clarifying Questions And Plan 10:30 Agent Builds And Tests 11:21 Reviewing The App UI 11:53 Free Docusign Developer Account 12:42 Adding The Docusign MCP 13:19 Integration Key And Secret 14:14 Redirect URI Setup 14:54 Connecting And Permissions Layer 15:17 Building The Agent Brain 16:12 Docusign Workflows Overview 18:00 Creating An NDA Template 19:36 Adding Signature Fields 21:03 Testing Docusign MCP Tools 21:22 Sending The NDA Agreement 22:39 Checking Agreement Status 23:02 Populating The Agreements Table 23:40 Free Source Code And Recap =========================== About This Video =========================== In this video, I show you how to build an agent ready enterprise app that creates, sends, and tracks agreements using Claude Code, the Claude Agent SDK, Opus 5, and the Docusign MCP server. This tutorial is for developers, AI builders, and serious no-code/low-code builders who want practical workflows for building real apps, AI agents, automations, and coding systems. On this channel, I share practical AI engineering and agentic coding workflows using tools like Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Cursor, local AI models, and modern AI development workflows. #agenticcoding #docusign #aicoding
