Sendblue Notify

Overview

Outbound, fire-and-forget notifications from a local Claude Code session, script, or scheduled job to the user's phone via Sendblue. This is the "walk away from the terminal" pattern: kick off something long, get an iMessage when it lands. This skill owns when to notify and what to say. Actual sending goes through [[sendblue-cli]]. Hook wiring (so notifications fire automatically) goes through [[update-config]].

When to Use This Skill

• Use when the user says "text me when X is done", "ping my phone", "notify me on completion", "let me know when the build/deploy/migration finishes", or "send me an iMessage when…".
• Use when the user asks to wire a hook that texts on agent stop, /loop iteration, or /schedule completion.
• Use when an agent turn is genuinely long-running and the user has gone heads-down on something else.
• Do not use for short, interactive tasks where the user is watching the terminal — the notify is noise.

Prerequisites

The CLI must be installed and authenticated:

npx @sendblue/cli whoami        # confirms creds
# or, if first run:
npx @sendblue/cli setup

The user's phone number must be a verified contact on the account. On the free plan, the contact has to text the Sendblue number once before outbound sends work — confirm with sendblue contacts before relying on notify in an unattended wor
