Auto Mode and Session Viewer for Claude Managed Agents

Two developer updates to Claude Managed Agents: Claude can now judge each tool call itself, and you can watch a running agent from your terminal or browser.

Details

Setting the permission policy to auto has Claude review each tool call and MCP tool call against the intent in your messages, then run it, deny it, or pause to ask you
Each tool-use event now carries an evaluation field with the decision and a short reason, such as flagging a potentially destructive operation
The new ant beta:sessions connect command attaches your terminal to a running session so you can follow it live, send messages, and approve or reject pending tool calls
Adding --web opens the same session in a browser view served from your own machine
The session viewer is in beta in the ant CLI. Both updates require API access to Claude Managed Agents

Best for

Letting a hosted agent run without approving every tool call by hand, while still stopping risky actions

When to use it

Your fixed allow and deny lists either block useful work or let too much through.
