Claude DuetSpot the repetitive work
Look for tasks you do the same way every time: entering the same details, checking the same pages, copying data between sites. These are perfect for an agent.
Do it once with the agent
Describe the task and watch the first run. Correct it in plain words if it misunderstands. When it works, you have a reliable instruction.
Schedule it
In Automations, give the instruction a schedule — every morning, every Monday, every hour while Chrome is open. Results arrive as Chrome notifications and are saved in the run history.
Good candidates
- Price and availability checks.
- Morning briefs with your calendar and headlines.
- Weekly digests on a topic.
- Checking a page for new postings.
Limits to know
Scheduled runs happen in your browser, so Chrome must be open. Steps that need approval wait for you. Each run is an AI request.
