# Gotify Notification Skill

Send push notifications to your Gotify server when long-running tasks complete or important events occur.

## Purpose

This skill enables Clawdbot to send push notifications via Gotify, useful for:
- Alerting when long-running tasks complete
- Sending status updates for background operations
- Notifying of important events or errors
- Integration with task completion hooks

## Setup

Create the credentials file: `~/.clawdbot/credentials/gotify/config.json`

```json
{
  "url": "https://gotify.example.com",
  "token": "YOUR_APP_TOKEN"
}
```

- `url`: Your Gotify server URL (no trailing slash)
- `token`: Application token from Gotify (Settings → Apps → Create Application)

## Usage

### Basic Notification

```bash
bash scripts/send.sh "Task completed successfully"
```

### With Title

```bash
bash scripts/send.sh --title "Build Complete" --message "skill-sync tests passed"
```

### With Priority (0-10)

```bash
bash scripts/send.sh -t "Critical Alert" -m "Service down" -p 10
```

### Markdown Support

```bash
bash scripts/send.sh --title "Deploy Summary" --markdown --message "
## Deployment Complete

- **Status**: ✅ Success
- **Duration**: 2m 34s
- **Commits**: 5 new
"
```

## Integration with Task Completion

### Option 1: Direct Call After Task

```bash
# Run long task
./deploy.sh && bash ~/clawd/skills/gotify/scripts/send.sh "Deploy finished"
```

### Option 2: Hook Integration (Future)

When Clawdbot supports task completion hooks, this skill can be triggered automatically:

```bash
# Example hook configuration (conceptual)
{
  "on": "task_comp

Push alerts from a self-hosted notification server

Sends push notifications to a self-hosted server when long-running work finishes or an event needs attention, with optional titles, priority levels from zero to ten and rendered markup in the message body. It is a small wrapper around the server's web interface, so it needs the curl and jq binaries present and a credentials file holding the server address and an application token issued by that server. There is no hosted option, meaning the notification path is only as reliable as the self-hosted instance. Integration with task completion is the weak point, since the automatic hook is described as a future possibility and must be wired manually today.

Push notifications when a long task finishes

Create a dedicated application for automation so its token can be revoked without touching others.
With no curl or jq on the host the send script fails, which is easy to miss inside a long pipeline.
Use priority for genuine alerts, since a high priority on everything trains people to ignore it.
Delivery is best effort, so a notification is not proof that anyone was told.
Chain the notification after the task command so it only fires on a real completion.

Gotify is a self hosted push service, and this skill is the thin client for it: a small script that posts a title and a message to the server with an optional priority. It exists to close the loop on long running work, so completion does not have to be watched for. ## What it does - Sends a notification from a script with a message argument. - Accepts a separate title and message. - Takes a numeric priority so important alerts can be distinguished from routine ones. - Supports markdown in the message body. - Chains a notification after a command so a task's completion is reported. ## When it is the wrong choice It needs a reachable self hosted server plus a matching config file holding the address and an application token, so nothing works until that server exists. The script itself depends on the curl and jq binaries being present on the host. Because delivery is over the network, a notification is best effort: if the server is down or the token is wrong, the alert is lost and the sending task does not necessarily notice. It is also a one way channel with no acknowledgement that a person saw anything, so it cannot be used to gate a workflow. Automatic triggering on task completion is described as a future option rather than a working feature, so for now the call has to be made explicitly at the end of a task. ```bash bash scripts/send.sh "Task completed successfully" bash scripts/send.sh -t "Critical Alert" -m "Service down" -p 10 ``` ## Working notes - Credentials live in a json config file with the server address and an application token. - The address should be written without a trailing slash. - Priority runs from zero to ten.
