Claude Code CLI is a natural fit for Proximate Advanced Integrations: you kick off a task, switch to something else, and then have no idea when Claude is done unless you keep glancing at the terminal. This guide shows you how to create an integration for Claude Code and configure it so an icon appears right next to your cursor the moment Claude finishes responding — no terminal-watching required.

​
Step 1: Create the Integration in Proximate

1

Open Proximate Settings

With Proximate running, open the menu from the menu bar, dock, or taskbar, then select Settings.
2

Go to the Notifications tab

In the sidebar, select the Notifications tab. Make sure the switch in the sidebar is enabled, then select Advanced Integrations on the far-right of the tab bar.
3

Add a new integration

Click Add New.
4

Name the integration

Enter a display name — for this example, Claude Code CLI.
5

Choose an icon

Select the icon to use. Pick the Claude Code CLI option in the icon library, or choose any other icon you prefer.
6

Create the integration

Click Create. Your new integration appears with four hook commands ready to copy.

​
Step 2: Wire the Integration into Claude Code

Claude Code can run a shell command on its Stop event, which fires every time Claude finishes responding. You’ll point that event at your Proximate Success hook so you get a green icon each time a task completes.
1

Copy your Success hook command

On your integration card in Proximate, click the Success hook command (or its Copy button). The full command is now on your clipboard.
2

Open Claude Code's settings file

Open Claude Code’s settings file in your editor. To enable notifications for all projects, use the global settings file:
  • macOS / Linux: ~/.claude/settings.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\settings.json
To limit notifications to a single project, use the .claude/settings.json file inside that project’s folder instead.
3

Add the Stop hook

Add a Stop hook that runs your Proximate command. If the file is empty, paste this entire block — then replace the example ID with your own ID from the copied command:
~/.claude/settings.json
Inside settings.json, the double quotes around the proximate:// URL must be escaped as \". The safest approach is to paste the block above as-is and then swap in your integration ID, rather than typing the URL by hand. If your settings file already has a "hooks" section, add "Stop" alongside the events already there — don’t replace the existing section.
4

Save and verify

Save settings.json. Inside Claude Code, run the /hooks command to confirm your new Stop hook is listed.
5

Test end to end

Ask Claude Code to do any small task. When it finishes, a green Claude Code icon should appear right next to your cursor. If it doesn’t, see the Troubleshooting guide.

​
What Happens Next

Every time Claude Code completes a response, the Stop event fires, which runs your open proximate://… command, which tells Proximate to display the icon. You’ll see the icon appear by your cursor wherever it happens to be on screen — no need to have the terminal visible or to keep an eye on it. If you want different signals for different outcomes (for example, a Warning icon when Claude produces a warning-level result), you can add additional hook types using the same pattern in the hooks array.
You can create separate integrations for different projects and point each project’s .claude/settings.json at its own hook command. That way you can tell at a glance which project is pinging you.
