/tasks

Lists background tasks of the current session and attached background sessions.

Lists background tasks of the current session and attached background sessions.

โœ… WHEN TO USE IT?

Check running background subagents

After starting several subagents with /batch, call /tasks to see what's still open across the current session and any attached background sessions.

Get an overview before ending the session

Before /exit, quickly check /tasks to see if any background tasks are still running that you don't want to lose.

โ›” WHEN NOT TO?

Viewing scheduled cron/loop schedules

Per the docs, /tasks lists the session's background tasks, not the schedules created via /loop or /schedule.

Better: Ask Claude directly ('what scheduled tasks do I have?') for /loop schedules, or use /schedule for cloud routines.
