Notifications
Kodik sends notifications through the OS’s native notification system — not VS Code toasts — so they appear even when the IDE is running in the background or minimized.
When notifications are sent
Section titled “When notifications are sent”Notifications fire when the setting is enabled and the IDE window is not focused:
- Task complete — the agent finished its task.
- Permission required — the agent is waiting for you to approve an action.
- Shell command running for 30 seconds — an auto-approved shell command is still running and may need attention.
- Mistake limit reached — the agent stopped after encountering repeated errors.
