| description | Send a Pushover EMERGENCY (priority 2) alert that repeats until acknowledged, then poll the receipt until the user acks or it expires. Use when something is urgent and must not be missed - production breakage, a blocked autonomous loop needing immediate input, an alarm-until-acknowledged notification. For routine notifications use send-notification. TRIGGERS - emergency alert, urgent pushover, alarm until acknowledged, priority 2, wake me up. |

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.
Priority-2 emergency notification with receipt polling, via the TS core pushover_core.ts emergency.
env -u HTTPS_PROXY -u HTTP_PROXY bun "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_lib/pushover_core.ts" emergency \
--title "Title" --message "what happened + the one action needed" \
[--retry 30] [--expire 300] [--sound piano] [--attach report.png] [--app main|test]
Behavior (verified on a physical device 2026-05-30)
- priority 2 requires
retry (≥ 30 s) and expire (≤ 10800 s) — Pushover returns HTTP 400 without them. The core supplies defaults (30 / 300) automatically.
- The response returns a
receipt; the core polls /1/receipts/{receipt}.json every 5 s and prints {acknowledged, acknowledged_at, expired} when you ack (verified ack at t+35 s) or it expires.
sound=piano is a custom sound on this account; pianobar is the built-in fallback — use custom-sounds resolve piano pianobar.- Attach a
render-incident-report-image PNG for full detail; keep --message ≤ 1024.
Post-Execution Reflection
After this skill completes, check before closing:
- Did the priority-2 alert repeat until acknowledged? If it stopped early or never fired, fix the retry/expire handling.
- Did the receipt poll detect the ack or expiry? If polling hung or missed the ack, fix the poll loop.
Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
