Why This Matters

Anthropic's latest update to Claude Code introduces repeatable routines that operate independently of the user's device, enhancing automation capabilities for developers. The redesign offers a more streamlined and versatile interface, allowing multiple sessions and integrated tools, which can significantly boost productivity and automation workflows. These advancements underscore the growing importance of AI-driven automation solutions in the tech industry, providing developers with more powerful and flexible tools.

Key Takeaways

Anthropic’s Claude Code has a new repeatable routines feature that works even when your Mac is offline. Claude Code, part of the Claude app for Mac, has also been redesigned with new features.

Claude Code routines run on Anthropic’s web infrastructure

Claude Code routines are automations that you schedule and repeat. They run on Claude Code’s web infrastructure, so your Mac doesn’t need to be online for each task.

Anthropic says the new feature arrives today as a research preview.

Developers already use Claude Code to automate the software development cycle, but until now, they’ve managed cron jobs, infrastructure, and additional tooling like MCP servers themselves. Routines ship with access to your repos and your connectors, so you can package up automations and set them to run on a schedule or trigger.

Example use cases include scheduled tasks, API workflows, and GitHub routines.

Claude Code routine limits based on plan

Claude Code routines are available for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users with these limits:

Pro supports running 5 routines per day

Max supports running 15 routines per day
