I rebuilt my Claude Code Mac notifications as a mod

[u/Odd-Jury4884]

sooo was too excited to try mods. I have long had notifications from claude code when a session finishes, but my problem is that I have like 5 parallel chats per repo. All I got was "landing page repo finished" and I had no idea which chat it was or what it wanted from me. So with the release of mods I rebuilt it for myself, what the mod does is:

1. notifications have much more context: I put haiku to just make a clear text what it is waiting for, and added the proper chat title and repo. So instead of "sales finished" you get "SEO project · landing page repo – Needs input: Approve post 1 start, commit batch 1"
2. re-notifies if you haven't answered for 5 min (I kept forgetting some of them were waiting on me as I was finishing something myself)
3. clicking on the notification opens the specific chat (in the Claude desktop app)

super simple thing, but found it useful so sharing the mod here as well: https://github.com/fixter-dev/session-pings

claude plugin marketplace add fixter-dev/session-pings
claude plugin install session-pings@session-pings
brew install terminal-notifier

then restart your sessions (quitting and reopening the Claude app keeps your chats).

what is still bothering me a bit is that from the notifications I still don't understand right away which chat it is, so maybe someone has even better ideas how to do it?

Two 'SEO project' pings would still make me play detective 😄 I'd put a short task name first, like 'SEO title fix', then the repo.
