Error Message

Running /schedule in Claude Code returns the error: "We're having trouble connecting with your remote claude.ai account to set up a scheduled task." I am logged in to claude.ai and the issue persists across multiple attempts.

Error Messages/Logs

  • Still the same connection error — claude.ai's scheduler service is having an outage right now, nothing on your end.
  • No error code is returned, just the generic retry message
  • The /schedule skill itself loads successfully (no tool load error), the failure happens when it tries to connect to the claude.ai backend to register the task

Code Example

- Still the same connection error — claude.ai's scheduler service is having an outage right now, nothing on your end.
- Still failing — this is a persistent outage on Anthropic's scheduling service right now.

What I'd suggest: Come back to this tomorrow or later today. The routine file is saved and ready, so when the service is back up it'll register on the first try.

- Still down. This isn't going to resolve by retrying — the scheduling service itself is unavailable right now.

What's Wrong?

Running /schedule in Claude Code returns the error: "We're having trouble connecting with your remote claude.ai account to set up a scheduled task." I am logged in to claude.ai and the issue persists across multiple attempts.

What Should Happen?

The /schedule skill should successfully connect to the claude.ai account and register a recurring scheduled task (every Monday at 5:00 AM) that runs autonomously without requiring the user to be present in a session.

- Still failing — this is a persistent outage on Anthropic's scheduling service right now.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce

Open Claude Code (desktop app)

  • Type /schedule or invoke the schedule skill via the Skill tool with a task description
  • The skill launches and returns the following message every time, regardless of how many retries:
  • "We're having trouble connecting with your remote claude.ai account to set up a scheduled task. Please try /schedule again in a few minutes."

Additional context:

  • Issue is persistent — reproduced 5+ times across the same session with several minutes between attempts
  • No scheduled task is created
  • No error code is returned, just the generic retry message
  • OS: Windows 11
  • The /schedule skill itself loads successfully (no tool load error), the failure happens when it tries to connect to the claude.ai backend to register the task
