# SDK for [Computer Vision Annotation Tool (CVAT)](https://github.com/cvat-ai/cvat)
This package provides a Python client library for CVAT server. It can be useful for
workflow automation and writing custom CVAT server clients.
The SDK API includes several layers:
- Server API wrappers (`ApiClient`). Located in at `cvat_sdk.api_client`.
- High-level tools (`Core`). Located at `cvat_sdk.core`.
- PyTorch adapter. Located at `cvat_sdk.pytorch`.
- Auto-annotation support. Located at `cvat_sdk.auto_annotation`.
- Miscellaneous utilities, grouped by topic.
Located at `cvat_sdk.attributes` and `cvat_sdk.masks`.
Package documentation is available [here](https://docs.cvat.ai/docs/api_sdk/sdk).
