Operate notifications as one ECC-native workflow across GitHub, Linear, desktop alerts, hooks, and connected communication surfaces. Use when the real problem…
Unified Notifications Ops Use this skill when the real problem is not a missing ping. The real problem is a fragmented notification system. The job is to turn scattered events into one operator surface with: clear severity clear ownership clear routing clear follow-up action When to Use the user wants a unified notification lane across GitHub, Linear, local hooks, desktop alerts, chat, or email CI failures, review requests, issue updates, and operator events are arriving in disconnected places the current setup creates noise instead of action the user wants to consolidate overlapping notification branches or backlog proposals into one ECC-native lane the workspace already has hooks, MCPs, or connected tools, but no coherent notification policy Preferred Surface Start from what already exists: GitHub issues, PRs, reviews, comments, and CI Linear issue/project movement local hook events and session lifecycle signals desktop notification primitives connected email/chat surfaces when they actually exist Prefer ECC-native orchestration over telling the user to adopt a separate notification product. Non-Negotiable Rules never expose tokens, secrets, webhook secrets, or internal identifiers separate: event source severity routing channel operator action default to digest-first when interruption cost is unclear do not fan out every event to every channel if the real fix is better issue triage, hook policy, or project flow, say so explicitly Event Pipeline Treat the lane as: Capture the event Classify urgency and owner Route to the correct channel Collapse duplicates and low-signal churn Attach the next operator action The goal is fewer, better notifications. Default Severity Model Class Examples Default handling Critical broken default-branch CI, security issue, blocked release, failed deploy interrupt now High review requested, failing PR, owner-blocking handoff same-day alert Medium issue state changes, notable comments, backlog movement digest or queue Low repeat successes, routine churn, redundant lifecycle markers suppress or fold If the workspace has no severity model, build one before proposing automation. Workflow 1. Inventory the current surface List: event sources current channels existing hooks/scripts that emit alerts duplicate paths for the same event silent failure cases where important things are not being surfaced Call out what ECC already owns. 2. Decide what deserves interruption For each event family, answer: who needs to know? how fast do they need to know? should this interrupt, batch, or just log? Use these defaults: interrupt for release, CI, security, and owner-blocking events digest for medium-signal updates log-only for telemetry and low-signal lifecycle markers 3. Collapse duplicates before adding channels Look for: the same PR event appearing in GitHub, Linear, and local logs repeated hook notifications for the same failure comments or status churn that should be summarized instead of forwarded raw channels that duplicate each other without adding a better action path Prefer: one canonical summary one owner one primary channel one fallback path 4. Design the ECC-native workflow For each real notification need, define: source gate shape: immediate alert, digest, queue, or dashboard-only channel action If ECC already has the primitive, prefer: a skill for operator triage a hook for automatic emission/enforcement an agent for delegated classification an MCP/connector only when a real bridge is missing 5. Return an action-biased design End with: what to keep what to suppress what to merge what ECC should wrap next Output Format CURRENT SURFACE - sources - channels - duplicates - gaps EVENT MODEL - critical - high - medium - low ROUTING PLAN - source -> channel - why - operator owner CONSOLIDATION - suppress - merge - canonical summaries NEXT ECC MOVE - skill / hook / agent / MCP - exact workflow to build next Recommendation Rules prefer one strong lane over many weak ones prefer digests for medium and low-signal updates prefer hooks when the signal should emit automatically prefer operator skills when the work is triage, routing, and review-first decision-making prefer project-flow-ops when the root cause is backlog / PR coordination rather than alerts prefer workspace-surface-audit when the user first needs a source inventory if desktop notifications are enough, do not invent an unnecessary external bridge Good Use Cases "We have GitHub, Linear, and local hook alerts, but no single operator flow" "Our CI failures are noisy and people ignore them" "I want one notification policy across Claude, OpenCode, and Codex surfaces" "Figure out what should interrupt versus land in a digest" "Collapse overlapping notification PR ideas into one canonical ECC lane" Related Skills workspace-surface-audit project-flow-ops github-ops knowledge-ops customer-billing-ops when the notification pain is billing/customer operations rather than engineering
