Manage groups and group spend limits on Enterprise plans
Groups and group spend limits are available for Enterprise plan organizations. Owners, Primary Owners, and custom roles with the Identity & Access permission set to "Can manage" can go to Organization settings > Groups to manage groups. Owners, Primary Owners, and custom roles with the Billing permission set to "Can manage" can go to Organization settings > Usage to manage group spend limits. Group visibility settings are currently in beta. What are groups? Groups let you organize members into logical collections—by team, department, or any other grouping that fits your organization. Once groups are set up, you can: - Set spend limits for groups , so all members of a group share a per-user spend limit. - Control member access through group memberships and custom roles , so their…

Agent SDK reference - TypeScript
Complete API reference for the TypeScript Agent SDK, including all functions, types, and interfaces. npm install @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk The SDK bundles a native Claude Code binary for your platform as an optional dependency such as `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk-darwin-arm64`. You don't need to install Claude Code separately. The SDK version tracks the bundled Claude Code version: SDK v0.3.191 bundles Claude Code v2.1.191, so a feature on this page that requires a Claude Code version needs the SDK release with the same patch number or later. If your package manager skips optional dependencies, the SDK throws `Native CLI binary for not found`; set `pathToClaudeCodeExecutable` to a separately installed `claude` binary instead.
Agent SDK reference - Python
Complete API reference for the Python Agent SDK, including all functions, types, and classes. Install the package into a virtual environment. On recent Debian, Ubuntu, and Homebrew Python installs, running `pip install` against system Python fails with `error: externally-managed-environment`. python3 -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate pip install claude-agent-sdk For uv, Windows PowerShell, and API key setup, see Get started in the Agent SDK overview. The Python SDK provides two ways to interact with Claude Code: | Feature | `query()` | `ClaudeSDKClient` | | :------------------ | :--------------------------------------------- | :--------------------------------- | | **Session** | Creates a new session by default | Reuses same session |
Week 24 · June 8–12, 2026
Move a session to a new directory with /cd, let subagents spawn their own subagents, and troubleshoot a broken configuration with safe mode. Releases v2.1.166 → v2.1.176 3 features · June 8–12 Move a session with /cd v2.1.169 The new /cd command moves the current session to a different working directory without rebuilding the prompt cache: the new directory's CLAUDE.md is appended as a message instead of replacing the system prompt. The session relocates to the new directory's project storage, so `--resume` and `--continue` find it there. Claude prompts you to trust the directory if you haven't worked in it before.
Subagents in the SDK
Define and invoke subagents to isolate context, run tasks in parallel, and apply specialized instructions in your Claude Agent SDK applications. Subagents are separate agent instances that your main agent can spawn to handle focused subtasks. Use them to isolate context, run multiple analyses in parallel, and apply specialized instructions without adding to the main agent's prompt. This guide explains how to define and use subagents in the SDK using the `agents` parameter. You can create subagents in three ways: * **Programmatically**: use the `agents` parameter in your `query()` options. See the TypeScript and Python references * **Filesystem-based**: define agents as markdown files in `.claude/agents/` directories. See defining subagents as files * **Built-in general-purpose**: Claude…

AI Kill Switch Act would let Trump admin order shutdown of rogue AI systems
A proposed law called the AI Kill Switch Act would let US government officials order the shutdown of AI systems "that can cause catastrophic harm," the bill's sponsors said today. If approved by Congress, the bill would let the Trump administration and future administrations decide when an AI company must block user access, disable or restrict a particular capability, or shut an entire AI system down completely. The bill would require AI makers to deploy technical capabilities allowing them to throttle or shut down the systems when ordered to do so by the government. The bill would amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002 with authority for the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security to order the suspension or shutdown of AI systems. AI developers that refuse to shut systems down…
Anthropic updates Claude voice mode with more capable models
Claude's new voice model will let you reschedule your meeting or draft an email.
Claude’s voice mode is now available for Opus and Sonnet
Until now, voice mode has only been available on Claude Haiku , Anthropic's faster but less powerful model. Now the company is making its Opus and Sonnet models available in voice mode , and extending its reach into apps like Gmail, Slack, and Canva. When Anthropic launched voice mode last year, it was primarily focused on delivering answers to quick questions with minimal delay. But in a blog post, the company said people immediately started using voice mode for far more than casual queries. They were using it to work "through real business problems," which Haiku was not really designed for. That model "kept conversations quick, but not alwa … Read the full story at The Verge.

Patreon is laying off 20 percent of workers
Patreon is laying off 20 percent of its workers, or around 93 employees, as reported earlier by 404 Media . In a memo to employees, Patreon CEO Jack Conte writes that the company isn't making these changes "because we believe AI replaces humans," but says AI has "fundamentally transformed the tech industry, including how we work, how we build products, how we communicate, and more." That shift has changed "how we operate and organize," Conte writes. During an interview on Decoder , last month , Conte laid out his stance on AI, saying that the company is "100 percent embracing" AI tools internally to continue serving creators: If Patreon doe … Read the full story at The Verge.

Google just had its first negative cash flow quarter due to massive AI spending
Google has reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2026 ( PDF ), and as usual, the search giant raked in an unfathomable amount of money. Google saw total revenue of $119.8 billion, beating analyst expectations by a comfortable margin. Despite that, the company's stock has taken a hit. Along with all that revenue, Google has announced a further increase in its AI-fueled capital expenditures (or capex). The company is actually spending so much on AI infrastructure that it has negative cash flow for the first time. Search was the largest chunk of Google's income, accounting for $63.3 billion. Google Cloud pulled in $24.8 billion, a significant 23.8 percent increase from the first quarter. This shows there is massive demand for Google's AI services. Google also earned $12.9…

Apple’s OpenAI lawsuit is about who gets to define the post-smartphone era
Today on Decoder , I’m talking with Hayden Field, The Verge ’s senior AI reporter, about the major trade secrets lawsuit between Apple and OpenAI and what this tells us about OpenAI’s future.

The right-wing boomers protesting data centers have a lot in common with the left
A person holds signs during a nationwide protest against AI data center expansion outside Peace Hall in New Port Richey, Florida. | AFP via Getty Images On a gray, humid Saturday morning in central Florida, a little under a dozen people gathered outside the Spring Hill Branch Library to protest the construction of a hyperscale data center in their community. There was no immediate threat - the Hernando County commission had unanimously approved a one-year moratorium on such developments in June - but the organizers weren't satisfied. A temporary pause wouldn't be enough. They wanted a ban. "We are going to fight, fight, fight," said a 71-year-old woman named Carol, who was manning a table with flyers and a petition the group, No Data Centers Hernando County, planned on presenting to the…
How AI helps scientists design the next generation of medicines
Designing and developing a new medicine is an expensive, failure-prone scientific challenge. A new drug can take many years to develop, at the cost of a significant investment. And even then, most possible candidates never reach the patient. For biologic medicines, therapies made from engineered proteins rather than synthetic chemistry (which are often used to treat conditions across most major acute and chronic diseases), the complexity is even greater. Scientists explore vast quantities of possible molecules, looking for the rare few that will bind to the right target, remain stable in the human body, and be manufacturable at scale. Today, AI is speeding up these processes and has quickly become a core part of the infrastructure in pharmaceutical R&D. AI-assisted design is a growing…
