Coding agents notify Apple Watch

Published Jan 12, 2026 · Updated Jan 13, 2026

Coding agents like GPT 5.2 Codex and Opus 4.5 are good enough now that I always run them in "yolo" mode.

They work uninterrupted for minutes or hours on tasks while using Chrome Dev Tools or iOS Simulator MCP to test their work.

Because I usually walk away from my Macbook at that point, I’ve configured the agents to send me Apple Watch notifications when they’re done.

Justin Searls has a great guide here for how to set this up with Pushcut.

Then, to notify in Codex or Claude Code, add either of the following:

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)
notify = ["zsh", "-lc", "~/bin/pushcut 'Codex Complete'"]
Claude Code (~/.claude/settings.json)
{
  ...
  "hooks": {
    "Stop": [
      {
        "hooks": [
          {
            "type": "command",
            "command": "~/bin/pushcut 'Claude Complete'"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  },
  ...
}
