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.
