About:
Yo is a macOS command-line utility that sends Notification Center alerts directly from terminal sessions or scripts. It provides a simple interface for creating customizable notifications with titles, messages, and icons, making it ideal for automation workflows and script completion alerts. The tool bridges the gap between command-line operations and macOS's native notification system.

Key Features:

Send macOS Notification Center alerts from terminal
Customizable notification titles, messages, and icons
Simple command-line interface for scripting integration
Suppressible notifications for quiet operation
Open-source Swift implementation with active maintenance

Use Cases:

Script completion notifications for long-running processes
Automated alerting in CI/CD pipelines on macOS
Development workflow notifications for build/test completion
System monitoring alerts from cron jobs or daemons

Alternatives:

terminal-notifier – More feature-rich but requires Ruby dependency, while yo is native Swift
noti – Cross-platform notification tool, while yo is macOS-specific and Notification Center focused
