Ep. 074 | Your AI Just Got a Shift

Anthropic just gave your AI a work shift — and it clocks in whether you are watching or not.Claude Code Routines are here, and they change the game for how businesses use AI. Michael and Frank break down what Routines actually do — scheduled triggers, API calls, GitHub events — and why this "set it and forget it" pattern is the blueprint for every SaaS tool you will use in the next two years. From automated code reviews and alert triage to docs drift detection and deploy verification, this episode maps the use cases that matter for small teams.If you think AI still needs you to sit there and type prompts, think again. Your AI just got a shift — and the businesses that figure this out first will have an unfair advantage.Topics: Claude Code Routines · Anthropic · AI automation · scheduled AI tasks · small business AI · autonomous AI agents---Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat are Claude Code Routines?Claude Code Routines let you define a task once with a prompt, repository, and tools, then run it automatically on Anthropic's cloud infrastructure. Routines can trigger on a schedule, from an API call, or in response to GitHub events — no human needs to press go.Do I need to be a developer to use Routines?Right now, Routines work within Claude Code and require GitHub repositories, so some technical setup is needed. But the pattern — autonomous, scheduled AI tasks — is coming to every business tool. Understanding it now puts you ahead.How much do Claude Code Routines cost?Routines are included on Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans, but they count against your daily run allowance.
