novu-inbox-integration

novu-inbox-integration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from novuhq/skills. It costs 111 tokens per session (5,096 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An integration for adding Novu's in-app notification inbox to a web application. Novu is a notification service; the inbox can show a bell, unread messages, preferences, and notification actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in React, Next.js, or vanilla JavaScript applications that need an in-app notification feed with read or archive actions and live updates.
Why use it?
It provides the code and package choices needed to add a notification center without building every inbox component from scratch.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is Severity is a **visual** dial only. The workflow-level `critical: true` flag is independent — it changes runtime delivery (bypass preferences, skip digest), not.

Good fit Use it in React, Next.js, or vanilla JavaScript applications that need an in-app notification feed with read or archive actions and live updates.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

novu-inbox-integration 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 618 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Inbox Integration

Add an in-app notification center to your web application. The Inbox component provides a bell icon, notification feed, read/archive management, action buttons, and real-time WebSocket updates — all theme-able and personalizable to match your product.

Packages

Package Use For
@novu/react React 18/19 applications
@novu/nextjs Next.js (App Router + Pages Router)
@novu/js Vanilla JavaScript / non-React frameworks

React Quick Start

npm install @novu/react
import { Inbox } from "@novu/react";

function App() {
  return (
    <Inbox
      applicationIdentifier="YOUR_NOVU_APP_ID"
      subscriberId="subscriber-123"
      subscriberHash="HMAC_HASH"  // Required if HMAC encryption is enabled
    />
  );
}

This renders a bell icon with unread count. Clicking it opens a popover with the notification feed.

Next.js

npm install @novu/nextjs

App Router

// components/NotificationInbox.tsx
"use client";

import { Inbox } from "@novu/nextjs";

export function NotificationInbox() {
  return (
    <Inbox
      applicationIdentifier={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_NOVU_APP_ID!}
      subscriberId="subscriber-123"
      subscriberHash="HMAC_HASH"
    />
  );
}

Important: The Inbox is a client component — use "use client" directive in Next.js App Router.

Pages Router

import { Inbox } from "@novu/nextjs";

export default function NotificationsPage() {
  return (
    <Inbox
      applicationIdentifier={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_NOVU_APP_ID!}
      subscriberId="subscriber-123"
      subscriberHash="HMAC_HASH"
    />
  );
}

Composable Components

The <Inbox> component is composable. When you pass children, it acts as a context provider and you compose the UI from primitives:

Component Purpose
<Bell /> Bell icon with unread count
<Notifications /> Notification feed (header + list + footer)
<InboxContent /> Same as <Notifications /> plus the Preferences page
<Preferences /> Standalone preferences panel

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
