Claude Code Routines are here - and they expose a real problem with $100/month pricing Anthropic just shipped Claude Code Routines and it's blowing up on Hacker News (300+ points today). Routines let you define repeatable multi-step workflows in Claude Code: #.claude/routines/deploy.md ## Deploy Routine 1. Run test suite 2. Check for TypeScript errors 3. Build production bundle 4. Run security audit 5. Deploy to staging 6. Smoke test staging 7. Deploy to production You trigger it with: /routine deploy And Claude executes every step, autonomously. This is genuinely powerful.
