Claude Managed Agents Adds Dreaming, Outcomes, Multiagent Orchestration, and Webhooks
Anthropic has released several new features for Claude Managed Agents, now available on the Claude Platform. Dreaming (research preview) is a scheduled background process that reviews past agent sessions, extracts behavioral and outcome patterns, and curates memories accordingly. Harvey saw approximately 6x higher task completion rates with Dreaming enabled.
Key Features
- Dreaming: Automated memory curation that runs on a schedule. Agents improve over time by extracting patterns from past sessions. Currently in research preview — request access at claude.com/form/claude-managed-agents.
- Outcomes: Define a quality rubric; a separate grader evaluates agent output against it. The agent iterates until the rubric is satisfied, then notifies you via webhook.
- Multiagent Orchestration: A lead agent can delegate subtasks to specialist agents that execute in parallel, enabling concurrent work on complex jobs.
- Webhooks: Receive notifications when an outcome is achieved or on other lifecycle events.
Outcomes, multiagent orchestration, and webhooks are now in public beta. To get started, visit the Claude Platform.
