108108* **Reschedule, pause, or stop a routine.** Name the routine and the change, as in "disable the Friday rollup" or "move the standup summary to 10am Pacific"
109109* **Change what a routine does.** Ask Claude to stop the routine, then set up a replacement from the channel where the results should post.

111Standing work is visible to the channel: jobs post into the channel they belong to, or into another public channel you name that Claude has been added to. A channel's routines keep running if their creator leaves the channel, is removed from your Claude organization, or has their Slack account deactivated, and anyone still in the channel can disable them. Routines a person set up in a direct message with Claude belong to that person's account and are turned off when the person is removed from your Claude organization.

113113A few boundaries apply:
114114 
115115* A job runs with the channel's connections, the same as an interactive request.
116116* Claude can post a job's output into another public channel in the same workspace only if the job's own channel is public and Claude has been added to the target channel. It labels the message with the channel it came from.
117* Claude doesn't post a job's output into a different channel that's private or externally shared, or into a DM or group DM, and doesn't message people directly. Claude does send a completion or failure notice to whoever set up the routine, when that person's Slack account is connected to their Claude account.
117* A routine you set up in a [group DM](/docs/claude-tag/users/group-dms) posts its output in that group DM only.
118* Claude doesn't post a channel job's output into a different channel that's private or externally shared, or into a DM or group DM, and doesn't message people directly. Claude does send a completion or failure notice to whoever set up the routine, when that person's Slack account is connected to their Claude account.
118119* Schedules run in UTC. Name the timezone when you set a schedule, as in "every weekday at 9am Pacific". With no timezone in your message, Claude uses the one on your Slack profile. To confirm the time Claude set, send [`@Claude !routines`](/docs/claude-tag/users/commands#list-the-routines-in-a-channel), which lists schedules in UTC.
119120* A routine runs at a fixed UTC time, so each daylight saving change shifts its local time by an hour, in the same direction the clocks move. A routine running at 9am Pacific moves to 10am after the clocks go forward, or to 8am after they go back. Ask Claude to reschedule the routine to the local time you want.
120121* A scheduled job that touches a github.com repository uses the same GitHub connection your admin set up for interactive work. See [Configure GitHub access](/docs/claude-tag/admins/configure-github#scheduled-work-uses-the-same-connection).
