1113A **scheduled deployment** allows an [agent](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/agent-setup) to start [sessions](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/sessions) autonomously, enabling task completion over a predictable cadence. You create and manage deployments with the Deployments API, part of the Claude API.
