mcp-notifications
Desktop system notifications for MCP agents — instant feedback on tasks, failures, and workflow events.

Overview
mcp-notifications lets your MCP agent send desktop notifications for completed tasks, failures, and important updates. This is especially useful for console AI agents, because they usually have no built-in notifications by default. No more checking chats every minute. No more silent agent responses. Just visible, reliable feedback on your desktop. 🔔 You give tasks to several AI agents, then wait and keep checking who already replied. With mcp-notifications, this gets simpler: the agent can notify you on desktop when it needs your input or when work is done.
Installation
npm i -g @topvisor/mcp-notifications
Configuration
{
"mcpServers": {
"notifications": {
"command": "mcp-notifications",
"args": []
}
}Capabilities
- Send a desktop notification
Ask the agent to call `send_notification` with a custom title and message when a task finishes.
- Include an audible alert
Set `play_sound: true` so the notification plays the system sound on delivery.
- Customize the notification source on Windows
Pass an `app_id` to control the app name shown in the toast, or set it globally via the `MCP_NOTIFICATIONS_APP_ID` environment variable.
- Use a custom icon
Provide an `icon` path to replace the default image in the notification.
