Reach the human out-of-band when you are blocked and they may be away from the chat. Sends a real OS notification (or phone push / Slack / custom channel) and can block for the reply: a free-text answer, an approve/deny decision, or a pick-one choice. Use when you need approval before a risky or irreversible action, when you hit an ambiguous decision only the user can settle, when a long task finishes and needs sign-off, or when the user says "ping me", "notify me", "ask me when", "let me know", or "get my approval". Works from any agent that can run a shell command (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes).
