What is Scheduling Jobs?
Scheduled tasks let you run prompts automatically on a schedule in Claude Code. You can use the /loop command to repeat a prompt at regular intervals (like every 5 minutes or every 2 hours) while your session is open. You can also set one-time reminders for specific times. The tasks run in the background and stop when you close Claude Code. If you need tasks to keep running after you close the program, you should use Cloud or Desktop scheduled tasks instead.
