From GitHub's daily star counts.

Checked 15 Oct 2026 on GitHub.

Overview

peon-ping registers hooks and adapters for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode and about a dozen other agents. It plays sound-pack voice lines (Warcraft, StarCraft, Portal and others) and shows overlay banners and terminal tab titles on events such as task complete, permission needed, error and rate limit. It ships a `peon` CLI, an MCP server, SSH relay and phone notifications via ntfy.

Who it is for: Developers running AI coding agents who tab away and miss prompts

Strengths

Adapters for 20+ agents and IDEs, plus any MCP client
Per-event sound categories following the open CESP pack spec
Per-directory and per-IDE pack bindings, path exclusions, and Focus/DND detection
Installs via Homebrew, shell script, PowerShell, or Nix with Home Manager module

Weaknesses

Windows lacks some CLI commands such as setup, rotation, preview and mobile
WSL2 on Windows 11 24H2+ needs ffmpeg to play MP3 packs
Written in Shell; installer is piped from curl by default
Overlay banners listed only for macOS, WSL and MSYS2, not plain Linux

What it needs

no GPU
Needs ffmpeg (WSL2 on Windows 11 24H2+, MP3 packs), ntfy (optional, phone notifications)
Models: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI

How to choose

Check which agent it targets and whether it works with the version you run.
Read what it adds to every prompt; big rule sets cost tokens on each call.
Prefer add-ons you can turn off per project.
