Mcp Notifications
Adds a send_notification tool that fires native desktop notifications from your MCP agent over stdio. Useful when you're running console agents like Codex or Claude and want async feedback without polling the chat. You control title, message, sound on/off, and optional icon path. Supports node-notifier on most platforms and can force PowerShell toasts in WSL via environment variable. The main workflow is instructing your agent to notify you after long tasks or failures, either manually per request or by baking it into project-level instructions. Returns immediately while notifications queue in the background.

Readme
mcp-notifications
🚀 Ship faster. Miss nothing.
mcp-notifications lets your MCP agent send desktop notifications for completed tasks, failures, and important updates.
This is especially useful for console AI agents, because they usually have no built-in notifications by default.
No more checking chats every minute.
No more silent agent responses.
Just visible, reliable feedback on your desktop. 🔔
Common problem this solves
You give tasks to several AI agents, then wait and keep checking who already replied.
With mcp-notifications, this gets simpler: the agent can notify you on desktop when it needs your input or when work
is done.
Why teams install this
- ⚡ Immediate feedback from your MCP workflows.
- 🧠 Better focus: let the agent work while you stay on your main task.
- 🖥️ Native OS notifications via
node-notifier. - 🧵 Non-blocking behavior: notification sending is queued in background.
