Dispatch

Dispatch is a newly appeared item in the left-hand menu bar of the Claude app, acting as a spot where results of tasks processed while you weren't watching show up. Think of it like a package delivery hub: just as a hub gathers packages from various places, sorts them, and leaves them at your door, Dispatch seems to gather the results of tasks that ran automatically at pre-set times and display them in one place.

In practice, near this menu item there's also a feature for tasks that run automatically at scheduled times, along with a channel connecting Claude to external services like Slack and Notion. The morning summary feature (Morning Brief) is reportedly built on top of this combination, but since it's only visible on some users' screens so far, its exact use and full structure haven't been officially explained.

Still, based on what's been confirmed through screenshots, it's clear that Dispatch isn't a separate app or standalone screen, but a newly added item sitting next to the existing menu. Since Anthropic hasn't made an official announcement, the name and functionality could still change before a formal launch.

The article states, "On the left sidebar of the Claude interface, there are menu items lined up: New, Artifacts, Routines, Dispatch (marked as new), Customize, and More." A common misunderstanding here is treating Dispatch as a brand-new service separate from Claude, when in fact it's just one new item added next to the existing sidebar menu, and no official announcement has been made yet.

1. Open the Claude app and look through the left sidebar menu list.
2. Check whether an item called Dispatch appears next to Routines (it may only be visible to some users so far).
3. If it's there, click into it and see whether scheduled tasks or auto-run results are collected there.
4. If it's not there, check your recent task list for any automatically generated summary items.
