[FEATURE] Notification hooks for Claude Desktop app (e.g., Slack/OS notification on turn completion)
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 26, 2026 by zphy Closed Mar 30, 2026
The Claude Desktop app currently has no way to notify the user when a turn/response is complete. Claude Code (CLI) has excellent support for this via Notification hooks with the idle_prompt matcher, but the Desktop app lacks any equivalent.
Use case
When running long responses, I'd like to get notified (via Slack, OS notification, or other channels) when Claude finishes, rather than having to keep checking the window.
Suggestion
Expose lifecycle events (like turn completion) in the Desktop app, similar to Claude Code's hook system, so users can configure custom notifications.
