A small zot extension that plays a notification sound when the assistant finishes a turn or needs tool approval. Handy for long-running tasks so you don't have to babysit the terminal.

• Plays a short "ding" via macOS afplay whenever a turn ends with a final reply.
• Also plays when zot is waiting for you to approve a tool call.
• Skips intermediate tool-use turns, automatically allowed calls, errors, and aborts.
• Toggle on/off from inside zot via the /notifier slash command, which opens a small settings panel.
• State persists to config.json next to the extension.

• macOS (uses the built-in afplay command).
• Go 1.22+ on $PATH (the extension runs from source via go run ., no prebuilt binary is shipped). Install Go from https://go.dev/dl.
• A working zot installation. Tool approval notifications require a zot version that supports the tool_confirmation_requested lifecycle event. Older versions still notify when turns finish.

zot ext install https://github.com/patriceckhart/zot-notifier

Or clone / copy this directory into your zot extensions folder. zot will pick it up automatically based on extension.json (it's enabled by default).

No prebuilt binary is shipped — extension.json runs go run ., so the first launch compiles main.go on the fly. Make sure go is on your $PATH.

• Just run zot as usual. You will hear the ding when a turn ends or zot needs tool approval.
• Type /notifier to open the settings panel.
  • enter toggles the sound on/off.
  • esc closes the panel.
