Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the ntfy (Push Notifications) MCP Server?
Connect your ntfy instance to any AI agent and manage real-time alerts and notifications through natural conversation. ntfy is an HTTP-based pub-sub service that allows you to send notifications to your phone or desktop via scripts or APIs.
What you can do
- Instant Publishing — Send messages to any ntfy topic with custom titles, priorities, and tags (emojis).
- Message Polling — Retrieve cached messages from a topic to stay updated on previous alerts or system logs.
- Rich Notifications — Attach clickable URLs, custom icons, and even files to your push notifications.
- Scheduled Alerts — Use the delay parameter to schedule notifications for the future.
- Advanced Formatting — Send notifications with Markdown support for better readability on supported clients.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your ntfy instance URL (e.g.,
https://ntfy.sh) and an optional access token - Start sending alerts from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — Automate deployment alerts and system monitoring notifications directly from the terminal or IDE.
- Developers — Send debugging info or long-running task completions to your phone.
- Power Users — Create custom workflows that bridge AI agents with mobile push notifications without complex setups.

Frequently asked questions
Can I send emojis in my notifications?
Yes! Use the tags parameter in the publish_message tool. You can provide a comma-separated list of emojis or tags like 'warning,skull' to display them in the notification.
How do I check for messages that were sent while I was away?
You can use the poll_messages tool. By specifying the topic and optionally the since parameter, you can retrieve the history of cached messages from that topic.
Does this support self-hosted ntfy instances?
Absolutely. During setup, you can provide your custom NTFY_URL. If your instance requires authentication, you can also provide your NTFY_TOKEN.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your ntfy (Push Notifications) MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
