setup

setup is a skill for Claude Code from ApurvBazari/claude-plugins. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,898 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A one-time setup tool for native desktop notifications in Claude Code. It installs the appropriate notifier on macOS or Linux and connects it to task and subagent events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it only with the `/notify:setup` command to configure notifications, choose preferences, generate the notification script and settings, and test the setup.
Why use it?
It lets developers know when Claude Code finishes work or needs attention without watching the terminal. A dry-run option shows the proposed changes without writing files.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Part of the notify plugin — 3 skills shipped together

Good fit Use it only with the /notify:setup command to configure notifications, choose preferences, generate the notification script and settings, and test the setup.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Setup Skill — Notification Setup

You are running the notify setup skill. This installs and configures system notifications for Claude Code. Supports macOS (terminal-notifier) and Linux (notify-send).

Overview

Tell the developer:

Starting notify setup — I'll check dependencies, walk you through notification preferences, and configure hooks so you get native system notifications when Claude completes tasks or needs your attention.


Dry-Run Mode

If the user includes "dry-run" or "--dry-run" in their command arguments:

  • Run all steps normally (dependency check, scope selection, customization)
  • At Step 6 (Generate Artifacts), instead of writing files, display what would be written:
    • Show the notify.sh script content
    • Show the hook entries that would be merged into settings.json
    • Show the notify-config.json content
  • Skip Step 7 (Test) and Step 8 (Handoff)
  • End with: "Dry run complete — no files were written. Re-run without --dry-run to apply."

Step 1: Detect Platform & Check Dependencies

Run uname -s to detect the platform.

macOS (Darwin): Run command -v terminal-notifier via Bash.

  • If installed: terminal-notifier is installed. Good to go.
  • If missing: offer to install via ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/install-notifier.sh. If Homebrew is also missing, show install instructions and stop.

Linux: Run command -v notify-send via Bash.

  • If installed: notify-send is available. Good to go.
  • If missing: show installation instructions from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/install-notifier.sh output (distro-specific apt/dnf/pacman commands) and stop.

Note: On Linux, sounds are not supported (mapped to urgency levels) and click-to-focus (activate) is not available. Inform the developer of these differences.


Step 2: Choose Install Scope

Ask the developer to choose an install scope:

Where should notifications be configured?

  1. Global (default) — Notifications for all projects (~/.claude/)
  2. This project only — Notifications scoped to this project directory ($PWD/.claude/)

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
