What it does

Agent Notifications is an agent skill from 777genius/agent-notifications. Send an Agent Notifications desktop notification when the user requests one, attention is needed, or a meaningful milestone warrants an alert during ongoing work.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Project management and Webhooks. It works with Google Gemini, tmux, Linux and macOS. The repository describes itself as: 🔔 Cross-platform smart notifications for Claude/Codex/OpenCode/Gemini. Desktop alerts, sounds, click-to-focus, and webhooks. macOS, Linux, and Windows.

When your agent uses it

  • Attention is needed
  • A meaningful milestone warrants an alert during ongoing work

Example prompts

  • “/agent-notifications”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a80183c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Agent Notifications loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 971 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 971 words (~1,751 tokens).

“Use the Agent Notifications plugin's notify tool. Installation and notification permissions must already be configured. When using MCP and notification_status is available, check that read-only tool for this chat before choosing navigation. Its navigation eligibility reflects configuration and caller context…”
