# Claude Managed Agents can now cap spend per session

By Steven Van · 2026-08-07

Sessions pause and fire a budget\_reached event when they hit the cap, which developers can raise to let them continue.

Anthropic has added session budgets to [Claude](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/claude>) Managed Agents, letting developers cap spend per session. A session that hits its budget pauses and emits a budget\_reached event; the budget can be raised to let it continue. It's one of [four Managed Agents updates](<https://x.com/i/status/2085853169930957158>) shipped this week.
