Claude Board sends native desktop notifications when important task events occur. Notifications use the operating system’s notification system — Windows toast notifications and macOS Notification Center.
Supported Events
Each event type can be independently enabled or disabled in App Settings:
| Event | Default | Description |
|---|
| Task Completed | On | Claude finished working on a task (moved to Testing) |
| Task Failed | On | A task failed or exited with an error |
| Task Started | Off | Claude started working on a task |
| Revision Requested | On | Revision feedback was sent to Claude |
| Queue Auto-Started | Off | A task was automatically started from the queue |
- Test Passed uses the Task Completed toggle
- Test Failed uses the Task Failed toggle
Notifications include the task key for easy identification:
Claude Board — Task Completed
[FTR-CB-1042] Implement login page
✔ Completed — ready for review
Event Icons
Each event type uses a distinctive symbol:
| Event | Symbol |
|---|
| Started | ▶ |
| Completed | ✔ |
| Failed | ✘ |
| Revision | ↻ |
| Queue | ⏵ |
Localization
Notification titles and messages follow the language setting in App Settings. When Turkish is selected, notifications appear in Turkish:
Claude Board — Gorev Tamamlandi

✔ Tamamlandi — inceleme bekliyor
