Claude Code v2.1.71 adds /loop for cron-scheduled background prompts (PR babysitting, Slack summaries, deploy monitoring). Cursor shipped Automations with event-driven triggers from GitHub, PagerDuty, and webhooks. OpenAI open-sourced Symphony, an Elixir/BEAM framework that polls Linear, creates sandboxes, runs agents, and requires CI-passing "Proof of Work" before merge. The developer's role has shifted from "drive the agent" to "set the schedule and review the output." This is the single biggest builder-workflow change of the week — every major coding tool now supports autonomous background agents. Do this today: run /loop 5m check if the deployment finished to start using Claude Code as a daemon. (Claude Code changelog | Cursor Automations | OpenAI Symphony)
