Push Notifications

The point of driving Claude from your phone is not watching it work. Notifications close the loop: start a task, pocket the phone, get pinged when it matters.

What triggers a notification

  • Task finished — a session completed its run.
  • Waiting for approval — a session hit a permission prompt only you can answer.
  • Quota recovered — your 5-hour limit reset; you can work again (see Usage & Quota).

Open browser tabs also play a sound for these events.

Phone push via Bark (iOS)

Locked-phone push notifications are delivered through Bark, a free notification app:

  1. Install Bark from the App Store and open it once.
  2. Copy your device key (the https://api.day.app/XXXXXXXX/ URL it shows).
  3. Paste it into 16code's notification settings in the web UI.

The push is sent by your server, so it arrives even when no browser is open anywhere and the phone is locked.

Test it any time:

bash
curl "https://api.day.app/YOUR_KEY/16code/hello"

Your phone should buzz immediately.
