Claude code doesn't expose the model to the usage of sleep or timing commands. For instance it cannot set up loops on its own (and only in rare cases can stop them).

To prevent cache timeout you can do: /loop 55m continue if any open task remains

Idk, mine does? Or maybe it made a tool to enable it? ( it’s always building tools in python) But I can definitely tell it to tail the logs every 15 minutes and check for things, all night.
Those things it can do by putting a sleep in the script or command line or executes, but that works for external shell calls. It doesn't have an internal sleep tool or rate limiting that it can apply to itself.
