Claude Managed Agents Overview (platform.claude.com) AI

Anthropic’s Claude Managed Agents is a pre-built, configurable agent harness that runs in managed infrastructure, avoiding the need to build your own agent loop and tool runtime. It lets Claude operate within a defined environment (container template, packages, network access) and run long-running, tool-heavy tasks with persisted session history, streaming events, and the ability to steer or interrupt execution mid-run. The docs outline core concepts (agent, environment, session, events), available built-in tools (e.g., Bash, file operations, web search/fetch, MCP connectors), and note that the feature is currently in beta with a required beta header, rate limits, and branding guidelines for partners.
