# Anthropic updates Claude Managed Agents with session viewer and auto mode

The release introduces interactive session monitoring via the ant CLI and automated tool-call decision making.

- `ant beta:sessions connect` attaches a terminal directly to a running session
- Passing `--web` to the connect command opens a session viewer in a web UI served from localhost
- Auto mode allows Claude to review tool calls against user intent in `user.message` events and automatically execute, deny, or ask for input

## Why it matters

Developers using Claude Managed Agents can now inspect active sessions in real time and automate tool approvals without manual intervention for each call.
