Pushover MCP

A Model Context Protocol implementation for sending notifications via Pushover.net.

Overview

This MCP enables AI agents to send notifications through Pushover.net. It implements the MCP specification, allowing seamless integration with MCP-compatible AI systems.

Configuration

You'll need:

An application token from Pushover.net
Your user key from Pushover.net

Get these from your Pushover.net dashboard.

Tool Schema

The MCP provides a single tool:

`send`

Sends a notification via Pushover.

{
  message: string;          // Required: The message to send
  title?: string;          // Optional: Message title
  priority?: number;       // Optional: -2 to 2 (-2: lowest, 2: emergency)
  sound?: string;         // Optional: Notification sound
  url?: string;          // Optional: URL to include
  url_title?: string;   // Optional: Title for the URL
  device?: string;     // Optional: Target specific device
}

Example MCP Tool Call

{
  "name": "send",
  "params": {
    "message": "Hello from AI",
    "title": "AI Notification",
    "priority": 1
  }
}

Installing

Using with Cursor

Method 1: Install Globally

Run the MCP server using npx:

npx -y pushover-mcp@latest start --token YOUR_TOKEN --user YOUR_USER

In your Cursor IDE

Go to Cursor Settings > MCP
Click + Add New MCP Server
Fill in the form:
- Name: Pushover Notification (or any name you prefer)
- Type: command
- Command: npx -y pushover-mcp@latest start --token YOUR_TOKEN --user YOUR_USER

Method 2: Project-specific Configuration

Add an .cursor/mcp.json file to your project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pushover": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "pushover-mcp@latest",
        "start",
        "--token",
        "YOUR_TOKEN",
        "--user", 
        "YOUR_USER"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Using the Tool

Once configured, the Pushover notification tool will be automatically available to the Cursor AI Agent. You can:

The tool will be listed under Available Tools in MCP settings
Agent will automatically use it when relevant
You can explicitly ask Agent to send notifications

By default, Agent will ask for approval before sending notifications. Enable "Yolo mode" in settings to allow automatic sending.

Cursor Agent

Using with Roo Code

Access the MCP settings by clicking “Edit MCP Settings” in Roo Code settings or using the “Roo Code: Open MCP Config” command in VS Code's command palette.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pushover": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "pushover-mcp@latest",
        "start",
        "--token",
        "YOUR_TOKEN",
        "--user", 
        "YOUR_USER"
      ]
    }
  }
}

The Pushover notification tool will be available to Roo Code's AI agents

Note: Replace YOUR_TOKEN & YOUR_USER with your Pushover credentials.
