    SQL server agent is not client tool. SQLCMD, SSMS, BIDS, Visual studio are the tools.

    The SQL Server Agent is installed as a Windows service on the SQL Server and runs scheduled jobs. The client tools are available on the SQL Server installation media and include (2008R2):

    Client Tools Connectivity,

    Client Tools Backwards Compatibility,

    Client Tools SDK,

    SQL Server Books Online,

    Management Tools Basic/Complete,

    SQL Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework.

    You'll need some or all of those on your workstation depending on what you will be doing. Here's an overview: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143786.aspx
