AI Agents Notifier

📢 Desktop notifications for CLI-based AI coding agents

A cross-platform notification system that integrates with command-line AI coding agents to show desktop notifications for sessions, completions, and permission requests.

Note: This is specifically for CLI/terminal-based AI agents, not IDE extensions or web-based coding assistants.

Supported AI Agents

• ✅ Claude Code CLI - Native hook integration
• ✅ GitHub Copilot CLI - Native hook integration
• 🔜 Gemini CLI - Not yet implemented (PRs welcome!)

Installation

Claude Code CLI

📖 See claude/SETUP.md for installation instructions

Quick start:

curl -o ~/.claude/claude-code-notifier.sh \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hta218/ai-agents-notifier/main/claude/claude-code-notifier.sh
chmod +x ~/.claude/claude-code-notifier.sh

Then configure ~/.claude/settings.json - see claude/settings.example.json

GitHub Copilot CLI

📖 See copilot/SETUP.md for installation instructions

Quick start:

curl -o ~/.copilot/copilot-cli-notifier.sh \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hta218/ai-agents-notifier/main/copilot/copilot-cli-notifier.sh
chmod +x ~/.copilot/copilot-cli-notifier.sh

Then configure hooks per-project in hooks.json (project root) - see copilot/settings.example.json

Note: Copilot CLI hooks are project-based. You need to create hooks.json in the root of each repository where you want notifications.
