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.

Chat SDK gives that agent a chat interface through a single type-safe handler, with adapters that carry it to Slack, WhatsApp, and more.

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.
