Scheduling
Scheduling
Set up cron scheduling tools to run prompts repeatedly, poll for status, or set one-time reminders within a Claude Code session.
/loop 5m check if the deployment finished and tell me what happened
- If you do not specify an interval in the prompt it will default to 10 minutes.
- Tasks will expire after 3 days if never cancelled.
- Loop over another command:
/loop 20m /review-pr 1234. - For one-time reminders, DON'T use
/loop— just use natural language and specify when you want it later, e.g. "remind me at 3pm to push the release branch" or "in 45 minutes, check whether the integration tests passed". - Use natural language to check scheduled tasks or cancel a task, e.g. "what scheduled tasks do I have?" or "cancel the deploy check job".
