  description: >
    Claude Managed Agents is a fully managed agent harness for running Claude
    as an autonomous agent with secure sandboxing, built-in tools, and
    server-sent event streaming. Define reusable, versioned Agents, configure
    Environments (cloud containers or self-hosted sandboxes), and run
    stateful Sessions that perform long-running tasks. All endpoints require
    the managed-agents-2026-04-01 beta header.
