Send Bark (day.app) push notifications after Codex completes a task.

  • Works in 4 steps: Configure environment variables → Add instruction in project AGENTS.md → Provide a project name source (optional) → …
  • Claude run is finished
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, User Preparation, Workflow and Resources
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python3; reaches api.day.app; needs CODEX_BARK_KEY

What it does

Bark Notify is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Send Bark (day.app) push notifications after Codex completes a task. Use when one Codex or Claude run is finished, or when you need to notify on task completion with device name, project name, status, and summary.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/send_bark_notification.py` and `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Mobile. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Claude run is finished
  • You need to notify on task completion with device name

Example prompts

  • “/bark-notify”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in CODEX_BARK_KEY

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Configure environment variables
  2. Add instruction in project AGENTS.md
  3. Provide a project name source (optional)
  4. Send the notification at task completion

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.day.app

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • CODEX_BARK_KEY

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

Context cost

Bark Notify loads about 458 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 177 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~458

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 177 words (~458 tokens).

“Send a Bark push notification after each Codex task. Use the helper script to resolve the project name and post to the Bark API.”
