Notify with Pushover

Send push notifications to your phone via Pushover (pushover.net). Use when you want reliable out-of-band alerts from OpenClaw: reminders, monitoring alerts, cron/heartbeat summaries, or 'notify me when X happens' workflows.

Installa
$clawhub install pushover-notify

Pushover Notify

Send push notifications through the Pushover API using a small Node script.

Setup (one-time)

1) Create a Pushover application token and get your user key: - App token: https://pushover.net/apps/build - User key: shown on your Pushover dashboard

2) Provide credentials to the runtime (do not hardcode into this skill): - PUSHOVER_APP_TOKEN - PUSHOVER_USER_KEY

3) (Optional) set defaults: - PUSHOVER_DEVICE (device name) - PUSHOVER_SOUND

Send a notification

Use the bundled script:

PUSHOVER_APP_TOKEN=... PUSHOVER_USER_KEY=... \
  node skills/pushover-notify/scripts/pushover_send.js \
  --title "OpenClaw" \
  --message "Hello from Ted" \
  --priority 0

Optional fields: - --url "https://..." and --url-title "Open" - --sound "pushover" - --device "iphone" - --priority -1|0|1|2

Emergency priority example:

PUSHOVER_APP_TOKEN=... PUSHOVER_USER_KEY=... \
  node skills/pushover-notify/scripts/pushover_send.js \
  --title "ALERT" \
  --message "Something is on fire" \
  --priority 2 --retry 60 --expire 3600

Notes

  • If you need API field details, read: references/pushover-api.md.
  • For recurring alerts, prefer cron to schedule reminders; the cron job text can instruct Ted to run this skill.
