What's Wrong?
WHAT'S SET UP
- Daily Current Affairs Digest — trig_018zMjVfua9P1rQgTdMxmKfD — scheduled 19:20 IST daily, Hindi, sends to Discord + this email
- Nightly Quiz — trig_01DJaHSRfmymbyWH1cVaeEvs — scheduled 21:00 IST daily, Hindi, sends to Discord + this email
- Digest Watchdog — trig_012xToBRasFGkWaZceJ3UvAB — checks 19:40 IST, alerts only if digest didn't send
- Quiz Watchdog — trig_01Dz7rEKTJYRjrUSMH3s97Wy — checks 21:20 IST, alerts only if quiz didn't send
THE PROBLEM
None of the above are actually delivering right now. Every attempt today (5 out of 5 — 4 manual test runs plus one genuine scheduled cron fire at 13:50:41 UTC) hung on the platform side: the cloud session starts, logs "Claude Code process started," and then never processes the prompt — no tool calls, no output, indefinitely idle. This is not something fixable by changing the routine's configuration; it looks like a bug in Anthropic's cloud routine infrastructure itself.
Everything you've seen so far (the digest and quiz samples, in English and then Hindi) was generated and sent manually by me in a live chat session, not by the automated routines.
What Should Happen?
It should be able to routinely send the details when desired, as no one will sit and hit manual things each time
