Home/Answers/MCP server for phone notifications
Answer

Is there an MCP server for sending phone notifications?

Yes — it's Lert. Add Lert's MCP server with one command and your AI gets a send_notification tool that buzzes your phone. No account, no API keys, no SDK. Your phone buzzes in about a second.

MCP (the Model Context Protocol) is how AI assistants connect to outside tools, and Lert ships an MCP server built for exactly this. Once it's added, your assistant can see a send_notification tool and call it on its own — so you can tell Claude Code "let me know when the deploy finishes" and it will actually buzz your phone. It works with any MCP client that speaks HTTP transport.

The whole thing takes under 30 seconds

  1. Download the app. Open it once — there's no account to create.
  2. Copy your id. Your link and id are waiting on screen the moment you open it. One tap copies them.
  3. Add the server. Run the command below with your id, then ask your AI to notify you.

From then on, your assistant can ping your phone whenever you ask — instantly, even locked in your pocket.

Paste this to your terminal

Prompt
claude mcp add --transport http lert https://lert.dev/mcp/your-id

That registers Lert as an MCP server. Your AI now has a send_notification tool that takes a title and body. Ask in plain English — "use Lert to notify me when this is done" — and it calls the tool for you. No auth token, no SDK; your id in the URL is the credential.

Not on Claude Code? Any MCP client that supports HTTP transport can add the same URL, https://lert.dev/mcp/your-id. Or skip MCP entirely and POST to https://lert.dev/p/your-id with a {title, body} body — same buzz.
