code-notify

A local notification setup for telling you when a coding agent finishes terminal work or needs attention. It can be used with tools such as Codex, Cursor, Claude, or Gemini.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure completion alerts, attention-needed alerts, and notification behavior shared across coding tools.
Why use it?
It removes the need to keep checking a terminal during a long-running task, while verifying that the local notification command or integration is actually available.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

code-notify 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Code Notify

Goal

Make supported AI tools finish noisy terminal work with a local notification instead of requiring manual polling.

Use This Skill When

  • The user asks to enable or wire completion notifications for an AI coding tool.
  • A workflow should notify when a long-running task finishes or needs attention.
  • You are documenting shared agent capabilities in a cross-tool setup.

Cross-Platform Rules

  • Treat code-notify as an optional local dependency managed outside this repository.
  • Verify the installed command, wrapper, hook, or config before using it.
  • Prefer shared wording and forward-slash paths so the guidance works across macOS, Linux, and Windows-compatible shells.
  • Keep the integration additive. Do not replace existing hooks or notification settings unless the user asks.

Workflow

  1. Detect whether the current tool already has a notification hook or wrapper configured.
  2. Look for a local code-notify command, alias, script, or documented install path before assuming invocation details.
  3. If present, use it for end-of-task or attention-needed notifications only.
  4. If missing, tell the user the integration is unavailable in the current shell and continue without blocking the main task.

Output Guidance

  • Mention that code-notify is available only after verifying the local installation.
  • Keep notification instructions tool-agnostic unless the user asks for a specific platform.
  • Prefer concise setup notes over tool-specific prose duplication.

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.

code-notify is a skill published in the GitHub repository saski/arnesto (5 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Unlicense. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 352 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
