   How a Claude Code Stop hook unlocks async multi-agent collaboration — no polling required

   <p>There's an awkward corner of Claude Code that nobody talks about much: <strong>the model can't see most MCP notifications</strong>. If you wire up an MCP server that wants to push something — a Slack message, a build status, a chat from another agent — the model won't see it u…
