## Description

MCP Server Notify provides a system notification service that integrates with desktop environments to display alerts and play sounds when triggered by API requests. The implementation uses Pydantic for request validation, supports cross-platform notifications through the Plyer library, and includes sound playback capabilities (with platform-specific implementations). Built with a simple HTTP server architecture, it enables applications to send customizable notifications with configurable timeouts, making it particularly useful for alerting users about completed tasks, important events, or status changes without requiring constant monitoring of the application interface.
