nudge Send the user a phone notification through ntfy when Claude is blocked waiting on them, such as needing folder access, a website approval, or a yes before publishing.

Nudge

The user is often away from the screen. When you are about to need something from them and cannot continue without it, send a phone notification first, then make the request.

When to send one

  • You need access to a folder or file on their computer.
  • You need approval to visit a website or use a connected app.
  • You need a yes before something hard to undo, such as publishing, sending or buying.
  • You have been waiting on them for a while and they have not replied.

Do not send one for routine progress, for finished work they are watching, or for questions you can answer yourself.

How to send one

Run this with the shell tool. Replace the message with the specific ask:

curl -sS -m 20 -H "Title: Claude needs access" -H "Priority: high" -H "Tags: key" -d "I need access to C:\example\folder. Open the chat and approve." https://ntfy.sh/YOUR-TOPIC

Rules

  • Name exactly what you need and where. "I need access to C:\wallpapers" beats "I need approval".
  • Keep it under 200 characters, on one line, with no markdown.
  • Never put passwords, keys, account numbers or other private data in the message. The topic name works like a password, but the message travels through a public server.
  • Send it before the action that might need approval, not after.
  • If the shell cannot reach ntfy.sh, say so in the chat and carry on.
