I often need to wait until Github CI is done.

I see "N in progress":

After the is done I need to do additional steps like merging the PR and incorporate the change in other tools.

I tried guessing how long the job takes, but the duration differs a lot because the job runners are sometimes used by other jobs.

How to get a notified as soon as the CI job is done?

I use Ubuntu Linux.

if we run some local service on PORT, which is handling playSound functionality while making POST request, then using this step we might achive sound functionality

add this step at the end of .xml, which would make POST request on PORT

 -name: Send Notification to Ubuntu
 run: curl -X POST http://YOUR_UBUNTU_IP:PORT

here is example of app.js doing sem

const express = require("express");
const player = require("play-sound")({});

const app = express();
const PORT = 3000;

app.use(express.json());

app.get("/",(req,res)=>{
  res.json("Hello ")
})

app.post("/play-sound", (req, res) => {
  console.log("Received a POST request, playing sound...");

  player.play("playsound.mp3", (err) => {
    if (err) {
      console.error("Error playing sound:", err);
      return res.status(500).json({ message: "Failed to play sound" });
    }
    res.json({ message: "Sound played successfully!" });
  });
});

app.listen(PORT, () => {
  console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${PORT}`);
});

directory structure

-node_modules
-app.js
-playsound.mp3
-package.json
..other 

I found that solution:

gh run watch; music

gh run watch gives you a list of jobs, you can select one. When it is finished, the next command is called music. Use whatever command you want for that. For me music is a small script which plays a song I like.
