About this plugin

When you hand a batch of tasks to an agent and it churns through them in the background, the easy habit is to keep flipping back to the terminal and re-reading the todo_write list to see what finished and what is still in flight. dsh-task-progress-notifier reverses that loop: it listens to every durable todo/write session event, diffs each new snapshot against the previous one, and raises a notification only on genuine state transitions — a task moving to in_progress, flipping to completed, or every task reaching done — rather than pinging you on every redundant rewrite.

Each notification rides the platform-native channel — a PowerShell tray balloon on Windows, an osascript alert on macOS, or notify-send on Linux — always landing in the bottom-right corner without stealing focus. The plugin also registers a notify tool so the model itself can fire an on-demand reminder mid-run, such as nudging you to take a stretch break. It ships with sensible defaults, imports only dsh-tools and schemastery that every dsh installation already bundles, and requires no extra packages. Drop it into any dsh profile and it starts working immediately.

If you juggle several agent sessions at once and would rather glance at a desktop toast than keep your eyes glued to a terminal, or if you want the model to proactively call your name at key milestones, this plugin is built for that. Zero extra dependencies, plug and play.

Use Cases

  • Track long-running agent tasks via desktop toasts instead of hovering over the terminal
  • Differentiate new activity across multiple parallel agent sessions at a glance
  • Let the model proactively nudge you at key milestones such as all tasks finished

Best For

  • Developers orchestrating multiple agent sessions in parallel
  • Power users who prefer native desktop notification workflows
  • Everyday dsh users who want fewer terminal context switches
