What it does

• Live session status in a floating overlay — see what your agents are doing at a glance
• Approve or deny tool use directly from the overlay, with inline diffs for file edits
• Answer questions and review plans without switching to the terminal
• Web remote — monitor sessions and approve tools from your phone over local network
• Model & token tracking — see which model and token usage per session
• Display templates — customize what each session row shows with configurable tokens
• Keyboard navigation — global hotkey to open, arrow/number keys to act
• Jump to terminal — one click to the right tab (Ghostty, Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, Warp)
• Session grouping — organize by project or status with collapsible headers
• Sleep prevention — keeps your Mac awake while agents are working
• Snap-to-position — drag the overlay anywhere, snaps to edges and corners
• Auto-updates — get notified when a new version is available

Supports Claude Code and Codex CLI. macOS 14+ / Apple Silicon.
