Claude Code agent dispatch lets Latitude fire a Claude Code routine when a signal needs engineering follow-up. Latitude sends the routine a prompt with signal context, sample traces, and a link back to Latitude.

​
Prerequisites

  • Agent dispatch enabled for your Latitude workspace
  • Access to Claude Code routines
  • A Claude Code routine that is allowed to work in the repository you want it to modify
  • The routine trigger token from Claude Code

​
Prepare a routine

  1. Open Claude Code routines.
  2. Create or select the routine Latitude should trigger.
  3. Use a routine description that tells Claude Code to investigate Latitude signals, implement fixes, run relevant checks, and report what changed.
  4. Copy the routine trigger token from the routine API section.
  5. Copy the routine page URL from your browser. Latitude extracts the routine trigger ID from this URL.
A good routine description is: 
Inspect the Latitude signal, identify the regression or newly discovered issue, implement the fix, run the relevant checks, and report what changed.

​
Connect Claude Code

  1. In Latitude, open your project and go to Settings → Integrations.
  2. Open Claude Code and click Connect.
  3. Paste the routine token.
  4. Paste the routine URL, for example https://claude.ai/code/routines/trig_....
  5. Click Connect.
Latitude stores the routine token encrypted and uses it only to fire the configured routine.

​
Configure dispatches

After Claude Code is connected, open the Claude Code integration detail page in Latitude.
  • Triggers choose which Latitude events can fire the routine.
  • Routine trigger ID is extracted from the routine URL during setup and can be edited if you rotate routines.
  • Max dispatches per day limits how many routine runs Latitude can create.
  • Cooldown prevents repeated dispatches for the same source during a short period.
The default prompt asks Claude Code to inspect the signal, use Latitude context and MCP tools when available, identify the likely root cause, implement the smallest correct fix, add a regression test if appropriate, and open a pull request or report the result according to the routine’s environment.

​
What Latitude sends to Claude Code

Latitude calls the Claude Code routines API with:
  • The configured routine trigger ID
  • The encrypted routine token
  • The rendered dispatch prompt as the routine input text
Dispatch history records whether Claude Code accepted the request and links to the Claude Code session when Claude returns a URL.

​
Troubleshooting

  • Paste the routine page URL, not just the ID: the connection form validates URLs and extracts trig_... from the path.
  • Authentication error: rotate the routine token in Claude Code and reconnect the integration.
  • Dispatch request rejected: confirm the routine still exists and the trigger ID matches the routine you want Latitude to fire.
  • Routine runs but cannot fix code: review the routine’s repository access and instructions in Claude Code.
