Toggle OSC 777 working directory subtitle

[FreeSamples00]

See title.

System

System: macOS 26.1 (Tahoe)
Ghostty: 1.2.3 (Stable)

Problem:

Currently the OSC sequence \e]777;notify;foo;bar\a Gives:

The working directory ~ is added to the notification, which takes up most of the space in the pop-up (especially with longer paths, which tend to get truncated before the important parts anyway), and is not needed in some cases (all of my use cases).

Solution

Add a config option to toggle the pwd in notifications.

Possible Configs

option	value
shell-integration-features	no-notify-pwd
desktop-notifications	no-pwd
osc777	no-pwd

The level of fine-grain control is an open question:

• Could be per OSC (9, 777)
• Could be notification wide (both OSCs)

I am looking into scripting a tool for OSC usage in my shell (nushell), and this would greatly improve my options.

Bonus Feature:

I have not researched this, it could be far too much effort for the reward

Add an option for customizing the icon associated with the notification. I am unsure if this is up to the application sender, or purely determined by the OS via app icon...

e.g. desktop-notification-icon = path/to/icon
