Anthropic has unveiled a powerful new feature for Claude Code: cloud-based scheduled tasks. This advancement eliminates the need for local execution, enabling developers to automate routine coding workflows directly from the cloud.
Seamless Automation for Modern Engineering Teams
Users can now define repositories, schedules, and custom instructions via the web interface or inline commands like /schedule. The system intelligently executes tasks at specified intervals, enhancing consistency and reducing operational overhead.
- Automatically review all open pull requests on a daily basis
