- Removed: This feature is eligible for Zero Data Retention (ZDR) . When your organization has a ZDR arrangement, data sent through this feature is not stored after the API response is returned.
- Added: Claude Managed Agents supports geographic pinning at the agent level: inference_geo on an agent's model configuration pins the geography that serves model requests for sessions running that agent, with per-session overrides at session create. Agents without a pin follow the workspace's default inference geo on each request. Managed Agents also respects the Workspace geo configured in Console, and with self-hosted sandboxes , tool execution and the sandbox filesystem stay on infrastructure you control.
- Added: For how zero data retention (ZDR) applies to this feature, see API and data retention .
- Removed: Claude Managed Agents does not support the inference_geo parameter, but respects the Workspace geo configured in Console. With self-hosted sandboxes , tool execution and the sandbox filesystem stay on infrastructure you control.
- Added: The inference_geo parameter is supported on Claude 4.6 and later models. Requests with inference_geo on Claude Opus 4.5, Claude Sonnet 4.5, Claude Haiku 4.5, or earlier models return a 400 error.
- Removed: The inference_geo parameter is supported on Claude Opus 4.6, Claude Sonnet 4.6, and later models. Requests with inference_geo on Claude Opus 4.5, Claude Sonnet 4.5, Claude Haiku 4.5, or earlier models return a 400 error.
- Added: Workspace geo is set when you create a workspace and can't be changed afterward. Currently, "us" is the only available workspace geo.
- Removed: Workspace geo is set when you create a workspace and can't be changed afterwards. Currently, "us" is the only available workspace geo.
- Added: Claude Platform on AWS: Workspace geo is not configurable. Claude Managed Agents sessions on this platform run with an effective Workspace geo of "us" , which is currently the only available workspace geo. See Claude Platform on AWS for data residency considerations specific to that platform.
- Removed: Claude Platform on AWS: Workspace geo is not configurable. Workspaces are provisioned through the AWS Console, and the Claude Console Workspaces page is read-only. Claude Managed Agents sessions on this platform run with an effective Workspace geo of "us" , which is currently the only available workspace geo. See Claude Platform on AWS for data residency considerations specific to that platform.
- Added: Claude 4.6 and later models: US-only inference ( inference_geo: "us" ) is priced at 1.1x the standard rate across all token pricing categories (input tokens, output tokens, cache writes, and cache reads).
- Removed: Claude Opus 4.6, Claude Sonnet 4.6, and later: US-only inference ( inference_geo: "us" ) is priced at 1.1x the standard rate across all token pricing categories (input tokens, output tokens, cache writes, and cache reads).
- Added: The same multiplier applies to Claude Managed Agents : when an agent's model configuration pins inference_geo to "us" , model requests in sessions running that agent are priced at 1.1x the standard rate.
