HOOKS — Managed Agents now support environment hooks.

No code changes needed; your next interaction picks it upBUDGET — Token budgets, explicit model selection, scheduled triggers, and free-tier access have landed for Managed Agents, along with an API for managing sandbox environments directlyBG — The July 7 release added long-running background tasks and remote MCP server integration.

Measuring a Guard in environment hooks: 46 Microseconds to Decide, 23 Milliseconds to Start

A record of building a destructive-command guard for Managed Agents environment hooks. A regex denylist let 9 of 20 dangerous commands through; argv parsing reached 100 percent detection. The startup cost turned out to be 500 times the decision cost.
