## Description

This macOS notification MCP server by Yuki Yano provides native macOS notification capabilities with intelligent tmux session integration and terminal emulator detection. The implementation combines a Swift-based notification app bundle with a TypeScript MCP server that can automatically detect the user's terminal environment (VSCode, Cursor, iTerm2, Terminal, alacritty) and navigate to specific tmux sessions, windows, and panes when notifications are clicked. Built for developers working in tmux environments who want contextual notifications that can instantly return them to the relevant terminal session, it offers both programmatic MCP tools and a standalone CLI for integration into build scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and development workflows.
