  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

What's wrong: The Create button on the New Routine form stays grayed out and unclickable even when all required fields are filled in: Name, Instructions, Repository, Trigger, and Connectors. No error messages or validation warnings are displayed anywhere on the form. Steps to reproduce:

Open Claude Desktop app on Windows Navigate to Code > Routines Click New Routine Enter a name Paste instructions into the Instructions field Select a GitHub repository Select a trigger (tested with Daily, Weekdays, and Weekly — all same result) Remove unnecessary connectors, leave only Notion Create button remains grayed out with no explanation

Platform: Windows Claude Desktop app (latest version) Plan: Max Routines version: Research preview

What Should Happen?

Expected behavior: Create button becomes active once all required fields are filled in. Environment:

TL;DR

The Create button on the New Routine form may remain grayed out due to an unknown issue, potentially related to the form's validation logic or connector configuration.

Guidance

  • Verify that all required fields are correctly filled in, paying close attention to the Instructions field, as formatting or content issues might affect the button's state.
  • Try adding and then removing different connectors to see if the issue is specific to the Notion connector or a more general problem.
  • Check for any hidden or overlaying elements on the form that might be interfering with the Create button's functionality.
  • Since no error messages are displayed, investigate if there are any client-side logs or debugging tools available in the Claude Desktop app that could provide more insight into the issue.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more information on the underlying technology stack or the form's validation logic.

Notes

The issue seems specific to the Windows version of the Claude Desktop app, and the fact that it has never worked as expected (not a regression) suggests a potential configuration or compatibility problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try using a different connector or trigger to see if the issue is specific to the current configuration, as this might help identify the root cause or provide a temporary solution.
