CodePing

Push notifications from Claude Code to any device, anywhere in the world.

You're deep in a vibe coding session — 4, maybe 10 projects running at once across different machines. One finishes on your office Mac. Another is waiting for input on a cloud server. A third just crashed on your VPS. But you're staring at the wrong terminal.

CodePing fixes that. It pings your phone the moment any Claude Code session needs attention — which machine, which project, what happened. You switch back, pick up where you left off, and keep the flow going.

Claude Code → ntfy → 📱 iPhone + ⌚ Watch
                   → 🤖 Android + Wear OS  
                   → 💻 Mac / Windows / Linux

Works on every device, every OS, every network. Even from a remote server on the other side of the world.

What you'll receive

Event	Notification	Priority
Claude waiting for input	[ProjectName] Waiting for input	🟡 High
Task complete	[ProjectName] Task complete	✅ Default
Claude stopped with error	[ProjectName] Error (exit 1)	🔴 Urgent

Notifications include the machine name and project name so you always know which one needs attention.

---

Multiple machines

Run /codeping-setup on each machine separately. Each machine gets its own ntfy topic:

codeping-macstudio-x7k2
codeping-office-mbp-a3f9
codeping-vps-prod-m2k8

Subscribe to each topic in ntfy — or use ntfy's wildcard subscription to receive all machines in one feed.

  "hooks": {
    "Notification": [{
      "matcher": "",
      "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "/path/to/codeping/scripts/notify.sh notification" }]
    }],
    "Stop": [{
      "matcher": "",
      "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "/path/to/codeping/scripts/notify.sh stop" }]
    }]
  }
}

Then run scripts/setup.sh manually.
