claude-notifications-go

Desktop notifications for Claude, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Gemini CLI and Cursor CLI on macOS, Linux and Windows. Supported architectures and events vary by agent; see the support table and linked setup guides. Claude and Codex also support sounds and click-to-focus.

Install Or Update

Guided installer or run:

(set -o pipefail; curl -fsSL https://agent-notifications.com/install.sh | bash)

Cursor CLI: install separately with an explicit CLI executable and profile. The managed UAP integration sends informational Stop notifications and optional webhooks; it does not provide Cursor IDE, question or permission alerts.

Choose Claude, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, or a combination. Install the selected agent CLIs first and make them available on PATH. The installer also requires curl, Bash, and a working python3 or node on PATH; see agent/platform prerequisites. Run the same command to update.

Windows: use Git Bash, not WSL, for a native Windows installation.

After setup:

• Claude: restart Claude.
• Codex: restart Codex, then review and trust the installed hooks in /hooks.
• OpenCode: restart OpenCode; on macOS, grant notification permission.
• Gemini CLI: restart Gemini to reload its hooks.

The installer selects a release from the platform channels for your OS and architecture. See that page for current versions and the release notes for validation details and known limitations.

Run the command once to migrate a normal Claude marketplace installation to its platform channel. Claude's plugin updater then follows that channel; rerun setup to update a standalone Codex bundle. Explicitly pinned/custom marketplace sources are retained.

For Codex only:

(set -o pipefail; curl -fsSL https://agent-notifications.com/install.sh | bash -s -- --product codex)

Use --product claude or --product both for Claude or Claude + Codex. For Claude, Codex and OpenCode on any supported platform:

(set -o pipefail; curl -fsSL https://agent-notifications.com/install.sh | bash -s -- --products claude,codex,opencode --desktop)

On macOS/Linux/Windows, add ,gemini to --products for all four agents, or use --product gemini for Gemini only. Fresh OpenCode/Gemini setup defaults to desktop notifications with webhooks off; updates preserve saved channel choices when no channel flags are supplied. Explicit flags replace the channel pair: --desktop enables desktop only, --webhook enables webhooks only, and both enable both. Webhook destinations need separate configuration. These flags do not change Claude/Codex channels.

Claude/Codex setup also installs the agent-notify MCP server and agent-notifications skill so an agent can notify you during a task. Open a new session after setup. When an existing managed MCP installation or binding is detected, automatic setup keeps absent clients off; use --agent-notify to add them explicitly. Use --skip-agent-notify to skip their setup for that run; it neither removes an existing MCP installation nor records a permanent opt-out. Setup and recovery details.

Features

• Task and attention alerts: completions, questions, tool approvals and more, depending on the agent. See the table below.
• Click-to-focus and sounds (Claude/Codex): focus the originating terminal or editor where supported; choose built-in or custom sounds, volume and audio output. Supported terminals · Sound settings
• Useful context: Claude/Codex desktop alerts show project, git branch and native session names, with generated labels as fallback. OpenCode desktop alerts show native session names when available. Question alerts show the current question when supplied by the host. OpenCode webhooks retain generic text. Session context · OpenCode context
• Less noise (Claude/Codex): optional focus-aware desktop delivery, delays, filters and subagent alerts. Plugin-level Do Not Disturb detection is Linux-only. Configuration · Do Not Disturb
• Webhooks: Slack, Discord, Telegram, Lark/Feishu and custom endpoints. Integration guides
• Cross-platform: macOS (Intel/Apple Silicon), Linux (x64/ARM64) and Windows 10+ (x64). Agent and delivery limits are listed below. Platform details

Supported Agents

Agent	Alerts	Sounds / click-to-focus	Details
Claude	Completions, reviews, questions, plans, session limits and API errors	Yes	Notification types
Codex CLI	Turn completion and tool permissions; experimental question hooks and final-message question/error detection	Yes	Setup and limits
OpenCode	Root-session completion, questions, permissions and errors	No	Setup and limits
Gemini CLI	Turn completion and tool permissions	No	Cross-platform setup and qualification
Cursor CLI	Agent loop stopping; fixed informational text	No	Qualified versions, platforms and explicit setup

OpenCode V1 and V2 use one installed plugin. The installer accepts stable V1 >= 1.18.29 and V2 >= 2.0.0; prereleases and unknown API generations are rejected. This compatibility range does not mean every version has been tested. See OpenCode setup, release reports and delivery limits for qualification of specific versions and platforms.

The installer requires exactly Gemini CLI 0.62.0. See the Gemini guide for platform evidence and limits. A completed Gemini turn does not necessarily mean task success or a final answer. Gemini alerts and OpenCode webhooks use generic text; OpenCode desktop alerts may include native session titles and current question text. Gemini's built-in notifications can cause duplicate desktop alerts; choose one desktop source or use Agent Notifications for webhooks only.

For OpenCode on stock Windows V1, the original event age is not always independently verifiable. A delayed completion may notify once and recur after the 24-hour claim lifetime; filters, provenance, deduplication and limits still apply. One-shot opencode run delivery at host shutdown is best effort; use a persistent host for sustained delivery.

Settings

In Claude, run /claude-notifications-go:settings for the settings wizard. You can request sound previews during the wizard.

For Claude/Codex, use the installed launcher to find or safely inspect settings. The commands below assume agent-notifications is on your PATH; otherwise, use its full path.

agent-notifications config path
agent-notifications config inspect --json

Claude/Codex share settings, with optional per-agent overrides after an explicit upgrade to configuration schema 2. The claude-notifications alias and Claude's existing slash-command names remain supported.

Managed OpenCode uses a separate settings target:

agent-notifications config path --target opencode --json
agent-notifications config inspect --target opencode --json

Use the executable and control root reported by its installer. See OpenCode settings and Gemini settings for agent-specific configuration and channel consent.
