Claude API has introduced dynamic workflows for its Managed Agents, currently in beta. This feature allows agents to create and execute complex, multi-phase programs for tasks like document review, which can significantly improve agent capabilities for large-scale operations. To enable this, you need to set the agent's multiagent field to {"type": "multiagent_20261001", "workflows": {"type": "enabled"}}.
