What is AWS Claude Managed Agent
An AWS Claude Managed Agent is the managed setup for teams that run their Claude access through AWS. You complete the AWS credential flow, describe the agent you want, and review the skills and tools Novu adds. Claude handles the reasoning, planning, and tool use. Novu resolves identity and conversation state and delivers every message. There is no repo to scaffold and no bridge to wire.

AWS Claude Managed Agent in Slack
Novu Connect is the communication layer, the ACI, Agent Communication Infrastructure, between your AWS Claude Managed Agent and Slack. Claude runs the reasoning through your AWS credential flow. Novu maps each user, keeps the conversation state, and delivers every message and reply in Slack.
One agent, Slack, resolved in the thread
Novu Connect lets an existing AI agent talk to users in Slack with two-way threaded replies, user identity mapping, and reliable delivery. Connect it with the command npx novu connect --channel slack. A nightly sync fails. Helix's agent diagnoses the cause, asks for approval, runs the fix, and confirms, all in the thread.
