An toogle-able option to ping the user by sound when a build is successful, a different one when it fails. Why? For large builds, it takes too long, perhaps an audible ping helps to keep track.

Research direction

The request does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the extension's build completion and failure handling, then review how user-configurable settings are defined. Done means users can enable the option and receive distinct sounds for successful and failed builds.
