dsh-helper-plugin-notify-away
Also known as notify-away, away notification, system notification, Cursor toast
Step away. When the task finishes, it calls you back.
Long turns are easy to miss: you switch to chat or docs, and only later notice the run already ended. While you are watching, the sidebar done dot is enough. dsh-helper-plugin-notify-away is a dsh plugin for the other case — you are not looking — with a system banner. Click it to focus the Web UI and open that session. Same idea as Cursor’s agent toast.
When it calls you
- Watching this session, window focused Silent
- Other app / tab / session System notification
- Click the toast Focus the Web UI, open that session
Allow the browser notification prompt once. On macOS, also allow the browser under System Settings → Notifications.
Install into dsh
dsh plugin --profile web add github:x102201/dsh-helper-plugin-notify-away- Run the command on the dsh profile you use.
- Restart
dsh web. - Start a task, switch away, wait for the banner.
This is a dsh plugin (per profile) — not a dsh-helper feature. If you run several dsh instances on one desktop, see dsh-helper. Deep notes live in the repo.
