What it does
jdx-claude-nag is a lightweight Claude Code plugin that solves a common solo-builder friction point: the agent finishes a step or needs approval while you are in another tab, and nothing pulls you back. It implements progressive notification escalation—beginning with subtle signals and growing louder or more persistent until you acknowledge the prompt. That pattern suits overnight refactors, test runs, or multi-step plans where Claude Code blocks on tool consent. You add it when reliability of human-in-the-loop response matters more than silent failure. It is not a coding skill or MCP bridge; it is operational glue for the Claude Code runtime. Setup assumes you can install community plugins and allow OS-level notifications on your machine.
Highlights
- Progressive notification escalation: starts quiet, increases intensity until you respond
- Built specifically for Claude Code waiting states and permission prompts
- Reduces missed agent turns during long autonomous runs
- Single-plugin repo with a focused nag/notification scope
- Community-category utility with minimal setup surface area
Why builders use it
Claude Code often sits idle waiting for approval while you miss quiet alerts and lose minutes or hours of agent momentum.
After install, unattended sessions surface increasingly strong notifications until you return and unblock the agent.
