terminal-notifier is a command-line tool for sending macOS User Notifications from the terminal. It ships as an app bundle and supports options like titles, sounds, notification groups, and interactive actions.

Use cases

  • send macos notifications from the command line
  • notify me when a build finishes
  • show desktop alerts from shell scripts
  • remove or list delivered notifications from terminal
  • pipe command output into a macos notification

When to choose

  • you need native macOS notification center alerts from scripts or CI
  • you want a lightweight CLI with Homebrew installation
  • you need interactive or grouped notifications from the terminal

When to avoid

  • you are on Linux or Windows
  • you need notarized/signed binaries without workarounds
