Claude Code adds scheduled background routines, webhooks
Anthropic introduced routines for Claude Code, enabling developers to configure AI tasks that run autonomously on a schedule, via API, or triggered by events like GitHub webhooks. The routines execute on Anthropic's web infrastructure, removing the need for a persistent local environment.
Routines transform Claude Code from a reactive local assistant into a proactive, continuous integration tool.
- –Scheduled runs enable autonomous background tasks like nightly bug triaging or draft PR creation
- –Native GitHub webhook support allows Claude to automatically review PRs or respond to issues as they happen
- –Dedicated API endpoints let teams integrate Claude directly into existing alerting and deployment workflows
- –Cloud execution means developers no longer need to keep their laptops open for long-running agentic tasks
