Summary

Managed Connections simplifies OAuth for AI agents by allowing them to define their identity in code, avoiding complex authentication flows. Now available in managed-deepagents 0.7.

Agent auth is hard, but it shouldn't be! Your agent needs to act as someone: sometimes that's one shared identity, sometimes it's the person asking. To get either right you'll need an OAuth app for each service, a token store, refresh logic, and a consent flow Today we're fixing this with Managed Connections: define who your agent acts as in code, and the rest is handled for you: 𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚝 -> agent uses its own token 𝚞𝚜𝚎𝚛 -> agent uses the user's token, guiding them through the consent flow if they haven't connected yet With a single argument you avoid the whole OAuth dance. Available now, in 𝚖𝚊𝚗𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚍-𝚍𝚎𝚎𝚙𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚜 0.7
