Termix sends browser notifications when an agent transitions from working to idle. This lets you step away from your computer and come back only when something needs your attention.

How It Works

  1. Termix tracks each agent’s working/idle status
  2. When an agent stops working (output burst ends), Termix waits to confirm it’s truly idle
  3. If the Termix tab is not in focus, a browser notification fires
  4. If sound is enabled, a notification sound plays (also only when the tab is not in focus)
The notification includes:
  • Session name
  • Project name (if assigned)
  • The latest message preview from the agent

Setting Up

1

Enable notifications

Open Settings > Notifications and check Notify when agent finishes working.
2

Allow browser notifications

Click Enable browser notifications. Your browser will ask for permission — click Allow.
3

Optional: Enable sound

Check Play sound and pick from 7 built-in notification sounds. Use the preview button to hear each one before choosing.

Notification Sounds

Termix includes 7 notification sounds:
SoundStyle
Default BeepShort, neutral beep
Soft BeepQuieter, gentler tone
Bold BeepLouder, more attention-grabbing
Echo BeepBeep with reverb
Musical BeepMelodic tone
Small BleepQuick, subtle bleep
SpaceSci-fi inspired tone

Minimum Working Time

To reduce noise, you can set a minimum working time before notifications fire. If an agent works for less than this threshold, no notification is sent. Open Settings > Notifications and adjust the Minimum working time dropdown (5 seconds to 60 seconds). This prevents notifications from firing when an agent does a quick check and immediately goes idle.

Muting Individual Sessions

If a particular session is too noisy, you can mute it without disabling notifications globally:
  • Right-click the session > Mute
  • Or click the session menu button > Mute
Muted sessions show a mute icon in the sidebar. They still show status changes visually, just no notifications or sounds.

When Notifications Don’t Fire

Notifications only fire when:
  • The Termix browser tab is not in focus (if you’re already looking at it, you don’t need a notification)
  • The active session is not the one that just finished (if you’re already watching that session, no notification)
  • The session is not muted
  • The agent worked for longer than the minimum working time threshold
  • Browser notification permission is granted
