Console observability

The Claude Console includes a session viewer for inspecting what an agent did without writing any code. In the Console sidebar, under Managed Agents, select Sessions to see every session in the workspace with its status, agent, token usage, cost, and creation time, then select a session to open it. The session viewer is only accessible to Developers and Admins. It shows:

• Timeline minimap: A zoomable overview of the session's activity over time, with one lane per thread in multiagent sessions. Select a lane to view that thread, or select a mark to jump to its event.

• Transcript: The conversation grouped by model request, including thinking, tool calls with their inputs and results, and message text as it streams. You can filter the events and copy or download them as JSON.

• Inspector: A resizable side panel with details about the session, in five tabs:

  • Session shows the session's details and metadata, its cumulative cost over time, and spend against the session's budget when one is set.
  • Events lists every raw event on the current thread in the order the server sent it; select an event to see its JSON. A message that streamed while the page was open also has a Deltas view of its event deltas.
  • Tools lists the tools the session's agents are configured with, along with call counts, failures, and median duration; select a tool to see its calls and jump to one in the transcript.
  • Resources lists mounted files, repositories, and memory stores at their container paths, including the memories in each store and the changes this session made to them, plus files the agent wrote to /mnt/session/outputs and the skills attached to the session's agents.
  • Threads lists every thread with its status, context size, and cost. Select a thread to view its details, such as the agent, model, context usage, and cost.

Append ?event=\{event_id\} to a session URL to open the session at a specific event.

With ant beta:sessions connect, you can open the same viewer from the ant CLI or follow the session in your terminal. See Connect to a Managed Agents session from your terminal.
