Notify Skill

Send notifications via ntfy.sh to alert the user about completed tasks, errors, or any important events.

Usage

Use this skill when:

  • A long-running task has completed
  • An error or issue needs attention
  • The user explicitly asks to be notified
  • Any event that warrants alerting the user

How to Send Notifications

Execute the following command with an appropriate message using fish shell:

fish -c 'curl -d "<MESSAGE>" "ntfy.sh/$NTFY_SUB_TOPIC"'

Replace <MESSAGE> with a concise, descriptive message about the event.

Note: $NTFY_SUB_TOPIC is a private fish shell variable, so the command must be run via fish -c.

Message Guidelines

  • Keep messages short and actionable (under 100 characters when possible)
  • Include relevant context (e.g., task name, file, error type)
  • Use clear language

Example Messages

  • "Build completed successfully"
  • "Tests passed: 42/42"
  • "Error: TypeScript compilation failed in src/index.ts"
  • "PR #123 is ready for review"
  • "Task complete: Database migration finished"
