Code with Claude 2026: Managed Agents "dreaming", doubled Claude Code limits and SpaceX Colossus 1 compute deal
Anthropic's second Code with Claude developer conference (San Francisco, May 6–7, 2026; London May 19; Tokyo June 10) brought new Managed Agents capabilities (dreaming, outcomes, multi-agent orchestration), doubled Claude Code five-hour rate limits, and, per third-party recaps, a compute deal to use all of SpaceX's Colossus 1 data center (220,000+ NVIDIA GPUs, 300+ MW).
Key facts
- San Francisco May 6 (plus indie/founder day), London May 19, Tokyo June 10
- Managed Agents: 'dreaming' (agents rehearse on past data), outcomes, multi-agent orchestration
- Claude Code five-hour rate limits doubled across Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise; peak-hour throttle lifted
- Reported SpaceX Colossus 1 compute partnership: >220,000 NVIDIA GPUs, >300 MW (third-party recap, not verified from primary source)
What happened
Other May launches around the conference, per a third-party timeline: a Skills marketplace (~600 skills, May 1), Claude Platform on AWS GA (May 11), the Claude Code /goal command (May 12), and the acquisition of Stainless (SDK tooling, May 18).
Why it matters
The conference marked Anthropic's shift toward hosted agents and showed how much compute it was lining up, including from Elon Musk's SpaceX/xAI infrastructure.
