Its two main parts are Harness Runtime, which runs agent code in isolated microVMs and preserves sessions, and Action Gateway, which provides a managed endpoint for governed tool access. Announced in September 2026, the service is in public preview; DigitalOcean says preview services are not guaranteed for production-level workloads.
What DigitalOcean Managed Agents does
Managed Agents is hosted software infrastructure, not a new computer or a single AI model. It is designed for agent tasks that alternate between short periods of computation and waits for a model, tool, or person. DigitalOcean says its service can keep an agent’s files and context available across those pauses, rather than requiring the process to remain attached to a developer’s laptop. The company describes integration with its Inference Engine for model calls. DigitalOcean’s launch announcement and product documentation describe the service; their performance and security claims are vendor statements, not independent test results.
The two main components
Harness Runtime runs and preserves agent sessions
Harness Runtime executes agent code in hardware-isolated microVM sandboxes. DigitalOcean describes these environments as including a filesystem, dependencies, and tools such as Chromium, with lifecycle controls to pause, resume, checkpoint, and fork sessions. A developer can close a laptop without ending a cloud session; according to the product page, the agent can continue, pause, and be reattached later. DigitalOcean also says runtime CPU charges track actual consumption and fall to zero while the agent consumes no CPU waiting. That is a statement about CPU billing, not a guarantee that every part of a workload or any paid tool is free while idle.
Action Gateway governs connections to tools
Action Gateway is a managed Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint that routes agent requests to connected tools and APIs. DigitalOcean says its catalog covers more than 16,000 tools across more than 500 providers, with examples including GitHub, HubSpot, Stripe, Snowflake, Box, Supabase, and Exa. Customers can also connect their own MCP servers and internal tools. These catalog figures and capabilities are published by DigitalOcean, not independently audited. The company says Action Gateway can centralize action permissions and require human approval for sensitive operations.

How credentials and access are handled
DigitalOcean says credentials are brokered at execution time and are not exposed to the model or sandbox. Its product page lists API keys, shared OAuth apps, and per-user OAuth as connection options. This design is intended to keep access credentials separate from the agent’s reasoning and execution environment, but the description is a vendor security claim; it should not be read as an independent security audit or a guarantee that a customer’s own tool configuration is safe. Teams should still review permissions, approval requirements, and the scope of each connected account.
Supported agents and ways to access preview
In its September 2026 announcement, DigitalOcean said users could create sessions with Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Hermes, LangChain, and LangGraph through Cloud Console or the doctl command-line interface. The company says Action Gateway is configured through the DigitalOcean SDK or an MCP-compatible client. Its documentation also describes customer-provided OCI images as sandbox templates. Since the product is in public preview and the supported list can change, check the current documentation and preview terms before planning an integration. The product page says customers must opt in to preview terms to access it.

- Both the DEWALT impact driver and electric drill driver feature integrated LED work lights with a convenient 20-second delay, ensuring enhanced visibility in dimly lit or challenging work areas
- One-Handed Loading - Keep one hand free with a 1/4 in. hex chuck that accepts 1 in. bit tips
- Power drill cordless with 1/2" single sleeve ratcheting chuck provides tight bit gripping strength, making bit changes faster and more secure
What it costs
DigitalOcean’s pricing page listed the following starting prices on October 3, 2026. These are vendor-published starting rates, not a quote for a particular agent workload, and prices may change.
| Component | Starting price listed October 3, 2026 | Important qualification |
|---|---|---|
| Harness Runtime | $0.0535 per hour | DigitalOcean says CPU charges fall to zero when the agent uses no CPU while waiting; this does not establish that every workload component is free while idle. |
| Action Gateway | $0.10 per 1,000 calls | Tool search is included at no charge; code execution and paid tools are billed separately. |
| Inference | $0.05 per million tokens | Starting price shown by DigitalOcean; actual model use determines consumption. |
Check DigitalOcean’s current Managed Agents pricing page for updated rates and billing details. The separate components matter when estimating cost: runtime hours, gateway calls, inference tokens, and any separately billed tools can all contribute to a workload’s bill.

What the published performance and cost claims establish
DigitalOcean’s launch blog reports that Action Gateway matched agent intent to tool capabilities with 99.3% accuracy in the company’s internal testing in 2026. This is not an independent benchmark, and the cited claim alone does not establish how the gateway will perform across different agents, tools, or customer workloads.
A separate DigitalOcean AI-Native Cloud announcement modeled a corporate-travel agent workload handling one million bookings per month at $67,727 per month on DigitalOcean, $84,827 on Baseten plus AWS, and $110,337 on AWS AgentCore. Those figures are DigitalOcean’s company analysis of a representative scenario, not independently verified Managed Agents prices or a general cost comparison. The same announcement estimated that agentic systems use four times the CPU capacity of equivalent traditional workloads and 15 times more tokens than human users; these are DigitalOcean’s broad estimates, not product-specific measured outcomes. The announcement provides the company’s framing and assumptions.

Who may find it useful—and what to weigh
Managed Agents may suit engineering teams that want durable cloud execution without running agents on a laptop or maintaining their own cloud VM, as well as companies embedding isolated, governed agent execution in customer-facing products. The trade-off is that a managed service’s convenience comes with dependence on DigitalOcean’s preview availability, supported harnesses, controls, and pricing model. Before choosing it over a self-managed VM or another platform, compare:
- How much control you need over the execution environment and sandbox image.
- Whether pause, resume, checkpoint, and session handoff match your workflow.
- How tool permissions, credentials, and human approvals are configured.
- Whether your agent or framework is supported, and how custom OCI images are handled.
- How the pricing bases—runtime, calls, tokens, and separately billed tools—map to your usage.
- Whether a public-preview service is appropriate for the reliability requirements of your workload.
DigitalOcean quotes OpenHands co-founder and CEO Robert Brennan praising the service’s isolated execution, governed tool access, durable sessions, and usage-based CPU pricing. That is a customer testimonial describing OpenHands’ view, not independent validation of performance or suitability.
