Building agents used to mean spending development cycles on secure infrastructure, state management, permissioning, and reworking your agent loops for every model upgrade. Managed Agents, on the Claude Platform, now handles that layer for you. This session covers the fundamentals of building and deploying a production-grade agent, and you'll hear firsthand how Rakuten is using Managed Agents to power their work.

Demos and office hours run all day. Drop by for a demo between sessions. Sign up in advance for office hours. All times in Japan Standard Time (JST).

A note on language. Sessions run primarily in English with some in Japanese (marked on the agenda), and live simultaneous interpretation is available in both directions throughout the event. Office hours are held in English.
