In its own words, on Claude Code: claude-plugins-community:

Bells and Whistles plays notification sounds and optional voice announcements when Claude Code finishes working or needs your attention. Choose from 10 themed sound packs (videogame, Disney, anime, movies, 90s rock, classical, cyberpunk, D&D, and more — each with 10 unique melodies) and add text-to-speech with accent, gender, and style options. Supports per-tab muting in tmux, themed speech phrases, and works across macOS, Linux, and WSL with graceful fallback to terminal bell over SSH.

Is this your plugin?

Add it to your projects and prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.

Data comes from the public marketplace file https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/HEAD/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
