Perplexity

Trigger terminal-driven push alerts via this Claude Code MCP Server

The `send_push_notification` tool issues immediate Airship mobile alerts from your command line using Claude Code. Claude Code executes this Airship command headlessly, letting you dispatch critical system updates during SSH sessions. You don't need a heavy browser interface to notify your team via Airship when using Claude Code. Claude Code pipes terminal errors directly into Airship to alert on-call engineers when server builds fail.

Audit your mobile audience from the command line

The `list_channels` tool outputs Airship device registries directly to your Claude Code terminal session. Claude Code filters this Airship list, allowing you to grep through thousands of active app installations in seconds. This speeds up mobile operations tasks significantly inside Claude Code when querying Airship. Claude Code pipes the Airship JSON output into local scripts to generate instant reports on active platforms and app versions.

Manage named users via this CLI MCP Server

The `list_named_users` tool exposes mapped Airship profiles inside your Claude Code terminal session. Claude Code uses this Airship data to verify user associations during database migrations or backend syncs. You keep your Airship user mapping clean without writing custom API clients inside Claude Code. Claude Code checks the Airship associations, flags unlinked accounts, and runs updates directly from your shell.
