Claude refused a reasonable request
What You Asked Claude to Do
I've asked to create a new issue triage routine running on issue create
What Claude Actually Did
It was refused:
Routines only support two trigger types: cron_expression (recurring, min 1 hour) or run_once_at (single firing). There is no event/webhook trigger.
