Peon-ping is a quirky utility that brings fun and practical voice notifications to your development workflow by using Warcraft III peon-style sound effects whenever significant events occur in your code editor or terminal. The project is built around the idea of reducing cognitive load by audibly alerting you when processes finish, tests fail, or language models complete responses, helping you stay focused without constantly watching the screen. It integrates with Claude Code, Codex, and other IDEs so that both AI-powered responses and routine command results can trigger peon voices. Because it’s implemented as a simple shell tool, it’s lightweight, easy to set up, and runs alongside your existing tools without interfering with your core development setup. Users can customize which notifications they want and how frequently sounds play, turning mundane events into amusing auditory feedback.
