2828You can update a session's `agent.tools` and `agent.mcp_servers`, including permission policies and per-tool web settings such as [domain filters](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/tools-web-restrictions#change-the-lists-mid-session), mid-session without creating a new agent version. Updates are session-local and do not propagate back to the underlying agent. Updated `allowed_domains` and `blocked_domains` apply to the rest of the session.

30Only the agent's `tools` and `mcp_servers` can change after a session is created. To run a session with `model`, `system`, or `skills` values other than the agent's, use [agent configuration overrides](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/sessions#override-agent-configuration-for-a-session) when you create the session. The agent's model configuration, including its [`inference_geo`](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/data-residency) pin, also can't change mid-session: set the pin when you save the agent, or set or clear it for a single session with a `model` override when you create it. The agent's configured `system` field is fixed for the session's lifetime. On models that support it, you can still append system-level guidance mid-session by sending a [`system.message` event](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/events-and-streaming#sending-system-messages).

3232The semantics of a `tools` or `mcp_servers` update are full replacement: the provided array is the new value. To preserve existing entries, `GET` the session, modify the array, and `POST` it back.

34The session must be `idle` to update the agent. To update the agent while the session is running, send a [`user.interrupt` event](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/events-and-streaming#integrating-events) by itself and wait for the session to become `idle`.

A `running` session cannot be archived; to archive one, send a [`user.interrupt` event](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/events-and-streaming#integrating-events) by itself and wait for the session to become `idle`.

585Delete a session to permanently remove its record, events, and associated sandbox. A `running` session cannot be deleted; to delete one, send a [`user.interrupt` event](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/events-and-streaming#integrating-events) by itself and wait for the session to become `idle`.

587587Memory stores, vaults, skills, environments, and agents are independent resources and are not affected by session deletion. Files you uploaded through the Files API are also unaffected, but files the session itself produced are scoped to it and are permanently deleted along with its filesystem. Download anything you need to keep before deleting the session. An output file written at the end of the last turn can take a few seconds after the session goes idle to appear in the [session's file list](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/files#listing-and-downloading-session-files), so check that the files you expect are listed first.
