-# Tool Use — Python
-
-For conceptual overview (tool definitions, tool choice, tips), see [shared/tool-use-concepts.md](../../shared/tool-use-concepts.md).
-
-## Tool Runner (Recommended)
-
-**Beta:** The tool runner is in beta in the Python SDK.
-
-Use the `@beta_tool` decorator to define tools as typed functions, then pass them to `client.beta.messages.tool_runner()`:
-
-```python
-import anthropic
-from anthropic import beta_tool
-
-client = anthropic.Anthropic()
-
-@beta_tool
-def get_weather(location: str, unit: str = "celsius") -> str:
-    """Get current weather for a location.
-
-    Args:
-        location: City and state, e.g., San Francisco, CA.
-        unit: Temperature unit, either "celsius" or "fahrenheit".
-    """
-    # Your implementation here
-    return f"72°F and sunny in {location}"
-
-# The tool runner handles the agentic loop automatically
-runner = client.beta.messages.tool_runner(
-    model="claude-opus-4-7",
-    max_tokens=16000,
-    tools=[get_weather],
-    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather in Paris?"}],
-)
-
-# Each iteration yields a BetaMessage; iteration stops when Claude is done
-for message in runner:
-    print(message)
-```
-
-For async usage, use `@beta_async_tool` with `async def` functions.
-
-**Key benefits of the tool runner:**
-
-- No manual loop — the SDK handles calling tools and feeding results back
-- Type-safe tool inputs via decorators
-- Tool schemas are generated automatically from function signatures
-- Iteration stops automatically when Claude has no more tool calls
-

-
-## MCP Tool Conversion Helpers
-
-**Beta.** Convert [MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) tools, prompts, and resources to Anthropic API types for use with the tool runner. Requires `pip install anthropic[mcp]` (Python 3.10+).
-
-> **Note:** The Claude API also supports an `mcp_servers` parameter that lets Claude connect directly to remote MCP servers. Use these helpers instead when you need local MCP servers, prompts, resources, or more control over the MCP connection.
-
-### MCP Tools with Tool Runner
-
-```python
-from anthropic import AsyncAnthropic
-from anthropic.lib.tools.mcp import async_mcp_tool
-from mcp import ClientSession
-from mcp.client.stdio import stdio_client, StdioServerParameters
-
-client = AsyncAnthropic()
-
-async with stdio_client(StdioServerParameters(command="mcp-server")) as (read, write):
-    async with ClientSession(read, write) as mcp_client:
-        await mcp_client.initialize()
-
-        tools_result = await mcp_client.list_tools()
-        # tool_runner is sync — returns the runner, not a coroutine
-        runner = client.beta.messages.tool_runner(
-            model="claude-opus-4-7",
-            max_tokens=16000,
-            messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Use the available tools"}],
-            tools=[async_mcp_tool(t, mcp_client) for t in tools_result.tools],
-        )
-        async for message in runner:
-            print(message)
-```
-
-For sync usage, use `mcp_tool` instead of `async_mcp_tool`.
-
-### MCP Prompts
-
-```python
-from anthropic.lib.tools.mcp import mcp_message
-
-prompt = await mcp_client.get_prompt(name="my-prompt")
-response = await client.beta.messages.create(
-    model="claude-opus-4-7",
-    max_tokens=16000,
-    messages=[mcp_message(m) for m in prompt.messages],
-)
-```
-
-### MCP Resources as Content
-
-```python
-from anthropic.lib.tools.mcp import mcp_resource_to_content
-
-resource = await mcp_client.read_resource(uri="file:///path/to/doc.txt")
-response = await client.beta.messages.create(
-    model="claude-opus-4-7",
-    max_tokens=16000,
-    messages=[{
-        "role": "user",
-        "content": [
-            mcp_resource_to_content(resource),
-            {"type": "text", "text": "Summarize this document"},
-        ],
-    }],
-)
-```
-
-### Upload MCP Resources as Files
-
-```python
-from anthropic.lib.tools.mcp import mcp_resource_to_file
-
-resource = await mcp_client.read_resource(uri="file:///path/to/data.json")
-uploaded = await client.beta.files.upload(file=mcp_resource_to_file(resource))
-```
-
-Conversion functions raise `UnsupportedMCPValueError` if an MCP value cannot be converted (e.g., unsupported content types like audio, unsupported MIME types).
-
----
-
-## Manual Agentic Loop
-
-Use this when you need fine-grained control over the loop (e.g., custom logging, conditional tool execution, human-in-the-loop approval):
-
-```python
-import anthropic
-
-client = anthropic.Anthropic()
-tools = [...]  # Your tool definitions
-messages = [{"role": "user", "content": user_input}]
-
-# Agentic loop: keep going until Claude stops calling tools
-while True:
-    response = client.messages.create(
-        model="claude-opus-4-7",
-        max_tokens=16000,
-        tools=tools,
-        messages=messages
-    )
-
-    # If Claude is done (no more tool calls), break
-    if response.stop_reason == "end_turn":
-        break
-
-    # Server-side tool hit iteration limit; re-send to continue
-    if response.stop_reason == "pause_turn":
-        messages = [
-            {"role": "user", "content": user_input},
-            {"role": "assistant", "content": response.content},
-        ]
-        continue
-
-    # Extract tool use blocks from the response
-    tool_use_blocks = [b for b in response.content if b.type == "tool_use"]
-
-    # Append assistant's response (including tool_use blocks)
-    messages.append({"role": "assistant", "content": response.content})
-
-    # Execute each tool and collect results
-    tool_results = []
-    for tool in tool_use_blocks:
-        result = execute_tool(tool.name, tool.input)  # Your implementation
-        tool_results.append({
-            "type": "tool_result",
-            "tool_use_id": tool.id,  # Must match the tool_use block's id
-            "content": result
-        })
-
-    # Append tool results as a user message
-    messages.append({"role": "user", "content": tool_results})

-# Final response text

-## Memory Tool
-
-### Basic Usage
-
-```python

-
-### SDK Memory Helper
-
-Subclass `BetaAbstractMemoryTool`:
-
-```python

-    def view(self, command): ...
-    def create(self, command): ...
