44description: Attach the ant CLI to a Claude Managed Agents session to follow its transcript live, send messages, allow or deny tool calls, or open the session viewer in your browser.

7`ant beta:sessions connect` attaches your terminal to an existing Claude Managed Agents [session](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/sessions). It loads the session's transcript and follows it live as the agent works. You can also step in: send a message, interrupt the agent, or allow or deny a tool call that is waiting for approval. With `--web`, it opens the session in the Claude Console's session viewer in your browser instead.

25The terminal view shows the conversation live: messages and tool calls, with each call's duration and outcome. A status bar shows whether the session is running, idle, or waiting for your approval. In [multiagent](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/multiagent-orchestration) sessions, the view follows the session's primary thread, which includes the messages exchanged between the agent that the session runs and the agents it delegates to.

45`--web` serves the Console's session viewer from a local server on `127.0.0.1`, prints its URL, and opens it in your browser. Add `--no-browser` to skip opening the browser. You can also send messages, interrupt the agent, and allow or deny a tool call from the browser. Unlike the terminal view, the browser viewer follows every thread of a multiagent session.

4747The URL can be opened once, within 2 minutes of being printed. Reloading that tab works, but to open the viewer anywhere else, run the command again. Your credentials never leave the CLI: the page sends requests only to the local `ant` process, which makes the API requests. The server runs until you press Ctrl+C.
