Create, back up, and restore Claude Code Desktop local routines (scheduled tasks) so they survive a PC change. Use when the user wants to set up a recurring or one-off Desktop routine, back up their routines, or restore routines on a new machine.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Manage Claude Code Desktop routines: create a **local** routine, and keep a portable backup so it isn't lost when you move to a new machine. ## Local vs remote Desktop's Routines page creates two different things: - **Local** — a scheduled task stored at `~/.claude/scheduled-tasks/<taskId>/SKILL.md` (or under `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`) on this machine only. It runs only while Desktop is open. Nothing about it is synced to the cloud, so it is lost on a fresh machine unless backed up. This skill manages **local** routines only. - **Remote** — a saved configuration in the user's claude.ai account, run on Anthropic-managed cloud infrastructure. It already survives a machine change on its own and needs no backup. If the task needs to run with the machine off, or fire on an API call or GitHub event, tell the user to create a **Remote** routine instead, from Desktop's **Routines → New routine → Remote** or [claude.ai/code/routines](https://claude.ai/code/routines) — this skill does not create those. Ask the user which they need only if it isn't obvious from the request; local file/tool access implies Local, "even when my laptop is off" or API/GitHub triggers imply Remote. ## Backup scope …

How to install
mdr add atman-33/workhub/manage-desktop-routines@sha256:cb745cc75b4a1220The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260901.114c610, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
