Claude Code use cases: jobs to hand over, with the setup for each

Claude Code reads your files, runs commands and connects to your tools over MCP, so it can do far more than write the next function. Each page below covers one job: what Claude Code does, the features built in for it, the tools to connect, the rules to put in CLAUDE.md, the command that runs it without you and how to put it on a schedule.

What every job needs

  • Rules in CLAUDE.md: Claude Code reads it at the start of every session. See the CLAUDE.md guide.
  • Tools over MCP: claude mcp add connects a server and /mcp shows what's connected. See Claude Code MCP.
  • A command that runs without you: claude -p runs one task and exits. In CI, --bare starts faster but skips CLAUDE.md, hooks and skills, so pass the rules with --append-system-prompt-file.
  • A schedule: cloud scheduled tasks with /schedule, desktop scheduled tasks, or /loop while a session is open. See proactive Claude Code.

FAQ

What is Claude Code used for?

Writing and changing code, and the work around it: code and security review, error and issue triage, testing, refactoring, data analysis, SEO and content. Anything it can do through files, commands and connected tools.

Can Claude Code do tasks that aren't coding?

Yes. SEO, content creation and data analysis all work, because they're done through files, a browser and tools such as analytics. See Claude Code for marketing.

How do I run Claude Code on a schedule?

Use cloud scheduled tasks (/schedule), desktop scheduled tasks or /loop, or run claude -p from cron. A Crewmark employee wakes on a heartbeat and takes the next issue from its board.

Do these jobs work with Codex too?

Yes. Every job has a Codex version. The rules are the same, in AGENTS.md instead of CLAUDE.md.
