Feature Request: Add Audible Notification (Bell/Ping) on Task Completion #13

Description

@bueno12223

I propose adding an optional audible notification (a simple bell sound or "ping") that triggers when an auggie task completes successfully in the terminal.

Motivation

When working on complex tasks, users often switch context or change tabs while agumment is running. Currently, the user has to constantly monitor the terminal window to know when the task has finished.

An audible alert would significantly improve the developer's workflow by:

  • Improving Focus: Allowing developers to concentrate on other tasks knowing they will be notified immediately when Auggie is done.
  • Enhancing UX: Providing a clear, non-intrusive indicator that a successful action (like a code application or a complex analysis) has concluded.

Suggested Implementation

The simplest implementation could involve printing the terminal bell character (\a) to the console upon successful exit of a long-running command. For a more robust solution, perhaps an option to use a platform-specific notification sound could be considered.

Would be awesome if we have this also for the VScode extension.

Thank you for considering this quality-of-life improvement!
