Notifyd MCP Server

Send email, SMS, WhatsApp, push and in-app notifications from one API call. One 12 MB Rust binary, PostgreSQL only. Queues, retries, provider failover and quiet hours are handled for you, and an AI agent can run it over MCP.

People who work with agent skills, axum and email and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.

      "url": "https://{notifyd_host}/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
