Connect your ntfy instance to any AI agent and manage real-time alerts and notifications through natural conversation. ntfy is an HTTP-based pub-sub service that allows you to send notifications to your phone or desktop via scripts or APIs.

What you can do

  • Instant Publishing — Send messages to any ntfy topic with custom titles, priorities, and tags (emojis).
  • Message Polling — Retrieve cached messages from a topic to stay updated on previous alerts or system logs.
  • Rich Notifications — Attach clickable URLs, custom icons, and even files to your push notifications.
  • Scheduled Alerts — Use the delay parameter to schedule notifications for the future.
  • Advanced Formatting — Send notifications with Markdown support for better readability on supported clients.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your ntfy instance URL (e.g., https://ntfy.sh) and an optional access token
  3. Start sending alerts from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — Automate deployment alerts and system monitoring notifications directly from the terminal or IDE.
  • Developers — Send debugging info or long-running task completions to your phone.
  • Power Users — Create custom workflows that bridge AI agents with mobile push notifications without complex setups.

Send a high priority notification to the 'server-alerts' topic saying 'Database backup completed successfully' with a checkmark tag.

I've published the message to the 'server-alerts' topic with priority 4 and the 'white_check_mark' tag. The notification has been sent successfully.

Poll the last 5 minutes of messages from the 'dev-updates' topic.

I've retrieved the cached messages for 'dev-updates' from the last 5 minutes. I found 2 messages: 'Build #402 started' and 'Build #402 finished'.

Schedule a notification to the 'reminders' topic in 1 hour saying 'Time for the standup meeting!'.

I've scheduled your notification for the 'reminders' topic. It will be delivered in approximately 1 hour.

Yes! Use the `tags` parameter in the `publish_message` tool. You can provide a comma-separated list of emojis or tags like 'warning,skull' to display them in the notification.
