Version: 2.1.71 (Claude Code)
Platform: macOS Darwin 25.3.0
Description:
The cron scheduling tools appear partially registered in v2.1.71 but the scheduler does not fire.
Behaviour observed:
CronCreateaccepts input and returns a job ID (e.g.8aa6f4b7) with a valid cron expressionCronDeleteworks — successfully cancels a job by IDCronListis not available at all — returns "No such tool available" when called directly, and "No matching deferred tools found" via tool discovery- Scheduled tasks never fire at the specified time
CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CRONis not set in the environment
Expected behaviour:
All three tools available, and tasks fire between turns at the scheduled time as described in documentation.
Steps to reproduce:
- Run
CronCreatewith a one-shot cron expression a few minutes in the future - Wait for the scheduled time
- Observe: no prompt fires;
CronListunavailable to verify job state
