Anthropic Launches Dreaming in Claude Managed Agents, Enabling Between-Session Memory

New Features Unveiled at Code with Claude 2026

On May 6, 2026, Anthropic announced new capabilities for Claude Managed Agents at its developer event, Code with Claude 2026. The headline feature, Dreaming, is now available as a research preview with a waitlist on Claude Console.

What Is Dreaming?

Dreaming is a scheduled process that reviews recent agent sessions and memory stores, extracts patterns, and automatically updates memory files. This enables agents to continuously learn from past interactions without human intervention—improving performance over time as they accumulate and apply relevant experience across sessions.

Additional Updates in Public Beta

Anthropic simultaneously moved three features to public beta: Outcomes (a rubric-based evaluation system for agent goals), multiagent orchestration, and webhooks. Together, these additions make Claude Managed Agents a more capable platform for building long-running, automated AI workflows directly from Claude Console.
