What
ScheduleWakeup is the tool Claude uses to set when the session resumes work, 60 to 3600 seconds from now. It is used by /loop, which runs a prompt repeatedly.
The tool is no longer deferred. Deferred tools are only found when Claude searches for them, so this one is now loaded from the start.
It gains a whenToUse hint that begins schedules when this session resumes work, 60 to 3600 seconds from now. It steers /loop runs that have no interval toward this tool.
The tool's main description is unchanged at 3,396 characters in the capture taken under this release.
Why
When you run /loop without an interval, Claude can pace itself without first searching for the tool. The extra hint adds a little text to what Claude reads in every session.
