Notify on Completion

Endpoint

  • POST http://127.0.0.1:60766/agent/notify
  • Header: Content-Type: application/json
  • Scope: Loopback only; requires the Agent Notifications app to be running and listening.

Payload properties

  • title (string, required): Concise heading for the notification title (e.g., "Build succeeded", "Tests failed").
  • content (string, required): One to two sentences summarizing the outcome. Include key facts such as what finished, duration, artifact paths, or a brief error summary. Keep under ~950 characters because the server truncates the displayed body to 1000 characters after prefixing the agent.
  • agent (string, required): Short identifier for the calling agent or workflow (e.g., "codex", "ci-run"). Avoid blanks and trailing spaces.

The server renders the notification body as <agent>: <content>.

Construction rules

  1. Trim all fields; do not send empty strings.
  2. Make success/failure explicit in title and content.
  3. Include the most useful signal in content (duration, counts, artifact hints, or top error line).
  4. Stay within the soft 950-character limit to avoid truncation.
  5. Build JSON safely (use jq -n or printf); escape quotes to avoid invalid payloads.

cURL template

agent_name="codex"
title="Feature implemented"
content="The feature was implemented in ${elapsed}s; bundle at dist/."

curl --fail --silent --show-error \
  -X POST http://127.0.0.1:60766/agent/notify \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "$(jq -n --arg title "$title" --arg content "$content" --arg agent "$agent_name" '{title:$title, content:$content, agent:$agent}')"

When to send

  • After long-running builds, tests, deploys, or data jobs finish.
  • Before ending a session when the user may be away from the terminal.
  • When a task fails; set a failure-focused title and summarize the error in content.
