NotifAI — Never Miss a Claude Code Prompt Again

NotifAI sends Claude Code CLI approvals to your dashboard so you can step away and respond from anywhere.

Requirements

VS Code 1.93+
Claude Code CLI (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
A NotifAI account at notifai.net

Getting Started

1. Connect your account

Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P) and run:

NotifAI: Connect to notifai.net

This opens your browser to complete sign-in. Once authenticated, your extension is linked automatically.

2. Run Claude Code

Open a terminal in VS Code and start Claude Code as normal. When Claude pauses for permission, NotifAI will:

Show a notification inside VS Code
Send the prompt card to your dashboard in real time

3. Respond from anywhere

Open notifai.net on any device — phone, tablet, second screen — and click Yes, Yes for this session, or No. The response is sent directly back to your terminal.

FAQ

Does this work with the Claude for VS Code chat extension? NotifAI monitors the terminal only (Claude Code CLI). It works alongside the chat extension with no conflict.

Does this work with Cursor or Windsurf? Likely yes — they are VS Code forks. Not yet officially tested.

Will this slow down my terminal? No. Detection runs asynchronously and never blocks terminal I/O.

Privacy

Only lines matching Claude Code permission prompt patterns are captured — all other terminal output is discarded immediately.
Data is sent only to your configured backend (notifai.net or your own). Nothing goes to Anthropic or any third party.
Your API key is stored in VS Code's SecretStorage (OS-level credential manager), never in plaintext.
No telemetry or analytics collected.
