You can now let a Claude Managed Agents agent use dynamic workflows, in beta with the managed-agents-2026-04-01 beta header. For work with many pieces, such as reviewing hundreds of documents, the agent can write a workflow. A workflow is a program that runs many agents in phases and combines their results.

We've launched Claude Haiku 5.5 (claude-haiku-5-5), our most capable model tuned for high-volume and latency-sensitive work. It has a 1M token context window, 128k max output tokens, and adaptive thinking with the effort parameter.
Code written for Claude Haiku 4.5 can break on Claude Haiku 5.5
Code written for Claude Haiku 4.5 can break on Claude Haiku 5.5. Manual extended thinking (budget_tokens) returns a 400 error, and adaptive thinking is on by default, so a response can begin with thinking blocks. The same text also counts as more tokens. See the migration guide. For model-specific prompting patterns, see Prompting Claude Haiku 5.5.

The Python and TypeScript SDKs now include classes, in beta, for the browser use tool and the computer use tool. You subclass one and write one method per tool against your own browser or desktop automation. The SDK runs the tool loop, the URL and file policies you set for the browser, and your approval callback.

In Claude Managed Agents, a cloud environment with limited networking now also applies its allowed_hosts to the web_search and web_fetch tools. A web_fetch call for a URL on a host that allowed_hosts does not match returns a url_not_allowed error result to the agent. web_search omits results from such hosts.
With limited networking, creating a session fails with a 400 error when an enabled web tool's allowed_domains
With limited networking, creating a session fails with a 400 error when an enabled web tool's allowed_domains has an entry not within allowed_hosts. So does a session update that adds such an entry. An allowed_hosts entry matches one exact host unless it starts with *., so docs.example.com is not within ["example.com"].

You can now select OpenJev (Qwen3.5 4B) as the evaluator model service of a custom LLM-as-a-judge service policy. OpenJev classifies content without generating output tokens, so it typically responds faster than a chat evaluator. See Use OpenJev as the evaluator .
