Triggers include schedule (simple, run on a schedule), GitHub event (respond to GitHub events like pull requests), and API (most flexible, allows calling via POST request). Notifications can also be included. After creating the routine, it runs on Anthropic's infrastructure and can respond to events, such as updating a README file when a pull request is created.",

I thought to myself \"could I get…",
