Claude Code Routines let you save one job as a prompt, connect the tools it needs, and set it on a schedule. From then on it runs on its own in Anthropic’s cloud. No laptop on, no babysitting. Pick the task you redo every week, set it once, and wake up to it finished. Here’s the whole setup.
What it is
A Routine is a saved Claude Code setup: a prompt (the job), the connectors it needs (Google Drive, Slack, GitHub, and more), and a trigger (a schedule). Once you save it, it runs by itself on Anthropic’s cloud at the cadence you pick. Your laptop can be closed.
Available on paid plans (Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise) in research preview. The minimum schedule is once an hour.
