Modal is announcing a first-class integration between its Sandboxes and Anthropic's Claude Managed Agents. The integration lets teams run agent tool calls inside self-hosted Modal Sandboxes while Anthropic manages the agent loop and session state. Key benefits include fast cold-starts, custom container images, multiple persistence options (volumes, snapshots), burst pricing, network security via short-lived connect tokens, and scale up to 100,000 concurrent sandboxes. Real-world use cases include DoorDash's multi-channel merchant AI agent system and Blend's agent-assisted engineering triage workflow. Reference examples (a CLI agent and a Slack bot) are available on GitHub to help teams get started quickly.
