overview
Trigger notifications when a process completes
history
noti is a small Go CLI for monitoring a process and sending a notification when it finishes. Its core pitch is simple: wrap a long-running command, attach to an already-running PID, or pipe command output into a notification instead of watching a terminal.
The project was originally known through the variadico/noti GitHub repository, which later moved to Codeberg at codeberg.org/roble/noti. The GitHub repository was archived on 2026-05-01 and marked as not mirrored, but it preserved useful adoption signals: 4.9k stars, 140 forks, 362 commits, and a README pointing to Codeberg.
The Homebrew formula packaged version 3.8.0 from a Codeberg source archive. Because the active Codeberg history was not easy to verify through a complete clone in this run, this history avoids claims about first release dates beyond the archived GitHub and Homebrew facts.
noti's adoption is unusually high for such a narrow utility because the problem is universal: long builds, tests, downloads, compression jobs, and data processing tasks finish when the user is no longer staring at the terminal. The archived GitHub star count indicates broad interest, while Homebrew reported 477 installs over the 365-day window in the formula JSON.
The README shows the practical shell patterns: prefix a command with noti, append noti after a command, watch a process ID with --pwatch, resume a suspended process with fg; noti, or pipe the tail of test output into noti with a custom title/message. Configuration is YAML, searched first at ./.noti.yaml and then under XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config/noti/noti.yaml.
Supported notification targets include local banner and speech notifications plus services such as Mattermost, Pushbullet, Pushover, Slack, Telegram, Zulip, Twilio, Google Chat, Chanify, Bark, and ntfy.
noti is the archetypal tiny productivity package: a single executable, no grand platform story, but a sticky workflow because it composes with any Unix command. It competes more with shell aliases and OS notification snippets than with large notification frameworks.
security posture
narrow executable package without higher-risk signals.
green risk · low confidence · appliance
Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
