+### Enhanced Notification System
+
+The enhanced notification system provides smart, context-aware notifications with queue management:
+
+- **Smart Visibility Detection**: Popup notifications only appear when the Claude buffer is not currently visible in your active perspective
+- **Always Queue**: Task entries are always added to the taskmaster.org file regardless of buffer visibility  
+- **Queue Counter**: Notifications show the current number of entries in the task queue
+- **Auto-dismiss**: Simple notifications auto-dismiss after 2 seconds to reduce clutter
+- **No Duplicates**: Each buffer is limited to one queue entry (existing entries are replaced)
+- **Automatic Cleanup**: Queue entries are automatically removed when Claude buffers are closed
+
+### Org Mode Task Tracking
+
+claude-code.el includes an optional Org mode integration that automatically tracks completed Claude tasks in a persistent log:
+
+#### Features
+
+- **Persistent Task Log**: All completed Claude tasks are saved to `~/.claude/taskmaster.org`
+- **Automatic Timestamps**: Each task entry includes completion timestamp
+- **Clickable Buffer Links**: Elisp links in org entries allow instant buffer switching
+- **Smart Display**: Popup notifications only appear when Claude buffer is not currently visible (taskmaster.org entries are always created)
+- **Dual Event Tracking**: Captures both task completion and session stop events
+- **Automatic Queue Cleanup**: Queue entries are automatically removed when Claude buffers are closed
+- **No Duplicates**: Each buffer is limited to one queue entry to prevent clutter
+
+#### Setup
+
+To enable Org mode notifications, add this to your configuration:
+
+```elisp
+;; Load the org notifications system
+(require 'claude-code-org-notifications)
+
+;; Set up the hook listener to receive events
+(claude-code-org-notifications-setup)
+
+;; Configure Claude Code CLI hooks in settings.json (this will set up the CLI side)
+(claude-code-setup-hooks)
+```
+
+This will:
+1. Set up the Emacs hook listener to receive Claude Code events
+2. Create the necessary directory structure (`~/.claude/`)
+3. Generate or update your Claude Code settings.json with notification hooks
+4. Enable automatic task logging to the taskmaster.org file
+
+#### Hook Integration
+
+The org-mode notifications now use the new Claude Code hooks system introduced in the supportClaudeCodeHooks branch. This provides better integration and more reliable event handling.
+
+#### Manual Hook Configuration
+
+If you prefer to manually configure hooks or already have a settings.json file, you can call:
+
+```elisp
+(claude-code-setup-hooks)
+```
+
+This function intelligently merges notification hooks with your existing configuration.
+
+#### Hook Context Variables
+
+Claude Code automatically exports the `CLAUDE_BUFFER_NAME` environment variable to the shell session, making it available to hooks and child processes. This allows hooks to:
+
+- Identify which Claude buffer triggered the notification
+- Pass buffer context to external notification handlers
+- Enable buffer-specific actions in custom scripts
+
+The environment variable contains the full buffer name (e.g., `*claude:/path/to/project:default*`) and is automatically set when Claude starts.
+
+#### Queue Browser and Navigation
+
+The notification system includes a powerful queue browser for managing multiple completed tasks:
+
+- **Queue Browser**: Use `C-c c q` to browse and select from the task queue using minibuffer completion  
+- **Numbered Entries**: Tasks are displayed as numbered list (e.g., "1. *claude:/path/to/project:default*")
+- **Direct Navigation**: Select any queue entry to instantly jump to that Claude buffer and workspace
+- **Position Tracking**: The system remembers your current position in the queue across commands
+
+#### Workspace Integration
+
+The notification system includes workspace support that integrates with project-based workflows:
+
+- **Automatic Workspace Detection**: Claude automatically detects your current project/workspace directory when starting
+- **Clickable Workspace Links**: Org mode entries include clickable workspace links that switch to the workspace directory
+- **Workspace Buttons**: Notification popups include "Open Workspace" and "Open & Clear" buttons for quick workspace switching
+- **Multiple Instance Support**: Works seamlessly with multiple Claude instances in the same workspace
+- **Keyboard Commands**: Use `C-c c w` to go to the most recent workspace or `C-c c W` to go there and clear the org entry
+
+When Claude completes a task, the workspace information is automatically extracted from the buffer name and included in both the org mode log entries and notification popups. The "Open & Clear" button and `C-c c W` command allow you to quickly navigate to a workspace and mark the corresponding org entry as DONE, helping you maintain a clean task queue.
+
+#### Queue Navigation Commands
+
+The notification system includes several commands for navigating and managing the task queue:
+
+- **Browse Queue**: Use `claude-code-queue-browse` to view and select from all queue entries using minibuffer completion
+- **Next Entry**: Use `claude-code-queue-next` to advance to the next entry in the queue
+- **Previous Entry**: Use `claude-code-queue-previous` to go back to the previous queue entry  
+- **Skip Entry**: Use `claude-code-queue-skip` to delete the current queue entry and advance to the next
+- **Queue Status**: Use `claude-code-queue-status` to show your current position and total queue size
+
+These commands maintain queue position tracking, so you can navigate through your completed tasks systematically. The queue browser provides the most user-friendly interface with numbered entries and completion.
+
+#### Auto-Advance Queue Mode
+
+Claude-code.el includes an optional auto-advance mode for streamlined queue processing:
+
+- **Auto-Advance Mode**: Enable `claude-code-auto-advance-queue` to automatically advance through the task queue
+- **Seamless Workflow**: When enabled, pressing enter in any Claude buffer clears it from the queue and jumps to the next waiting task
+- **Smart Navigation**: Automatically switches to a different Claude buffer's workspace and enters insert mode (with evil-mode)
+- **Intelligent Filtering**: Only advances to different Claude buffers, never stays in the current buffer
+- **Queue Status**: Shows remaining queue count when advancing
+- **Toggle Command**: Use `claude-code-toggle-auto-advance-queue` to quickly enable/disable the mode
+
+To enable auto-advance mode in your configuration:
+
+```elisp
+(setq claude-code-auto-advance-queue t)
+```
+
+Or toggle it interactively:
+
+```elisp
+M-x claude-code-toggle-auto-advance-queue
+```
+
+This mode is perfect for processing multiple completed Claude tasks efficiently - just respond to each task and you'll automatically be taken to the next different one. The system ensures you never get stuck in the same buffer and always advance to a truly different Claude instance.
