Notification improvements

[nf-matt]

I figured there will be other ideas related to notifications, so I didn't want to make the discussion title too narrow.

First up... thank you for putting this together! I have been using Ghostty because of its CPU/battery efficiency and your Claude Code additions are great. I was trying out claude-island but found it a little too disjointed. Your approach is a better balance for me.

The notifications are helpful, but one thing is a little odd to me. If my current Claude session is the one in focus in cmux, it seems like overkill to actually send a notification. I'm already there. The blue ring is helpful as an obvious attention getter, but I don't need a notification and sound if it's what has active focus. The blue ring isn't useful after I start typing.

Are you guys looking for ideas, or would you rather see PRs?

Thanks!

Speaking of notifications, is there a good way to have the app stop nagging about them being disabled? The in-app "bell" is sufficient. I don't want to enable MacOS system notifications for the app otherwise. I need CMUX to stop asking every few operations.

The ability to mute a workspace would be very handy

I ... have the opposite problem - my audio notifications aren't playing (because they're in focus?? or is it a bug?) But I actually want them because i'm looking away. 😅

Some better control on this would be great 100%.
