Dev ports bash-tool project to Claude Managed Agents, sandbox spins up independently

The author finds Claude Managed Agents well-balanced: the sandbox is optional and can be spun up independently of the rest of the agent loop. They also ported an old project focused on bash tool calling to CMA, and it worked well.

The core takeaway: you can increasingly give Claude tools shaped the way you want instead of tricking it with a layer of indirection — e.g., for data storage, do you really want a file system, or an API to a database?
