Here’s what’s new


We’ve shipped several updates to Claude and Claude Code designed to get the 
busywork off your plate, so you can focus on the work that matters.



Claude Code channels (research preview)

Control your Claude Code session through select MCP servers, starting with 
Telegram and Discord. Claude reads the event and replies back through the same 
channel—so you can keep things moving while you’re not at your terminal.

Scheduled tasks in Claude Code

Claude Code can now run recurring tasks 
<https://code.claude.com/docs/en/scheduled-tasks?utm_content=inline_link> on a 
schedule, both in the CLI or desktop app. Have Claude update documentation in a 
repo every week, or summarize open PRs each Monday so you know what needs 
review.
