Run Claude Managed Agents with Chat SDK
You can now run Claude Managed Agents with Chat SDK.
Claude Managed Agents handles the agent loop server-side, including the model, tools, session state, and sandboxed web research. That means you can ship a Slack research bot built on Claude Managed Agents and Chat SDK, with one persistent session per thread and streamed briefs with sources.
What you get
Token-by-token streaming: Replies render as the model writes them, over a single streamed response.
Live activity feed: Tool calls and model requests are available during the turn, so you can surface a trace in the chat.
No database to run: The Managed Agents session stores the conversation, so the sidebar, transcript, and replay read from it, no server-side state of your own.
Portability by design: Swapping a few lines in the handler moves your agent to Teams, Google Chat, Discord, WhatsApp, and 30+ other platforms.
