How to run a recurring PR check on a timed loop with Claude Code Tips Tricks

Use /loop to repeat a task on an interval so you do not trigger it by hand each time.

Short answer: Write the recurring workflow as a skill, for example one named pr-pruner (inferred: the README uses this name as an example); then start Claude Code in the repository with claude; run /loop 1h /pr-pruner to repeat the skill every hour. All steps.

Who it is forA team lead or maintainer who wants open pull requests checked regularly without remembering to do it.

The problemRoutine PR babysitting and cleanup gets skipped when it depends on someone starting it manually.

The outcomeA task repeats on your chosen interval for up to three days while you work on other things.

What you need first

  • Claude Code installed and running in a terminal
  • A project folder or git repository to work in
  • Access to a Claude account that Claude Code can use

Steps

  1. Write the recurring workflow as a skill, for example one named pr-pruner (inferred: the README uses this name as an example).
  2. Start Claude Code in the repository with claude.
  3. Run /loop 1h /pr-pruner to repeat the skill every hour.
  4. For a shorter check, run /loop 5m /babysit instead.
  5. For a job that keeps running after you close your laptop, use /schedule as the README describes.

Prompt for your agent

In the repo at <repo-path>, set up a loop that runs the pr-pruner skill every hour using /loop 1h /pr-pruner. Expected output: the loop starts and reports its interval. Verify by confirming the loop status shows the 1h interval.

Caveat. The README says /loop runs for up to three days, so plan to restart it for longer-running work.
