TheNotificationApp

Send notifications from Claude, Cursor & any MCP agent

Plug thenotification.app into your favourite AI agent. Ask it to ping your phone when a job finishes, alert your users about a release, or send yourself a reminder — straight from a conversation.

  1. 1

    Open Claude settings

    On Claude.ai or Claude Desktop, open Settings → Connectors.

  2. 2

    Add a custom connector

    Click Add custom connector. Name it thenotification.app and paste the server URL . Leave the OAuth Client ID and Secret blank — Claude registers itself automatically.

  3. 3

    Connect with Apple

    Click Connect. A window opens for Sign in with Apple. The same Apple ID you use in the mobile app links your Claude session to your applications — no API key to copy.

What you can ask for

Title & body

Give Claude a title and a body and it will push the notification to every device registered to your application.

Tap-through link

Add a URL and the notification opens it when tapped — link to a PR, a dashboard, or a deploy log.

Image preview

Drop in an image URL to show a thumbnail alongside the message — perfect for screenshots or charts.

“Send myself a notification titled ‘Build done’ that links to https://github.com/me/project/actions”

Troubleshooting

  • “Authentication required”

    Your session expired. Remove the connector in Claude → Settings → Connectors and add it again to sign in with Apple.

  • “Application not found”

    Call list_applications first to get a valid application_id. The tool only returns apps that belong to your account.

  • “Lifetime limit reached” or “Monthly limit reached”

    You’ve hit your plan’s quota. Upgrade your plan to send more notifications.

  • Notification never arrives

    Make sure at least one device is registered to that application. Open the mobile app and confirm the device appears under the app.

Privacy

You connect with Sign in with Apple. We issue your MCP client a short-lived access token scoped to your account — there's no API key to copy or leak. Conversations stay in your client.
