Scheduled Tasks in Claude Code

Claude Code introduced Scheduled Tasks, which Claude uses for self-checking.

<p>Recently, Claude Code introduced Scheduled Tasks.</p>
<p>For regular tasks, they don't make much sense - it's easier to run Claude via cron. What's more interesting is that Claude has started using them itself.</p>
<p>For example, after fixing something and deploying it, it says, "Let me check back in 4 minutes while CI runs," and sets a scheduled task for itself. After 4 minutes, it comes back, checks that everything rolled out fine, and moves on. Awesome.</p>
