App idea: an MCP-powered alarm that wakes you when your agent finishes
Angaisb_ · x · 2026-10-02
Angaisb proposes an app idea: an alarm with MCP integration. If you go to sleep while an agent is still running a task, you could tell it to wake you up when it's done. The author asks whether this already exists and thinks it would be super useful — a neat example of connecting agent state to physical devices via MCP.
