Pages loaded in a real browser, not just an HTTP request. Route discovery is best-effort — nav links not in the initial DOM are not followed. How we check

How it looked

We hash the visible text on every check, so a redesign registers and a rotating advert does not. An app that has not changed in a long time is not necessarily abandoned — but it is a fact worth knowing before you depend on it.

What it does

An open-source macOS menu bar app that surfaces what Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI and other coding agents are doing, so long-running sessions are visible without keeping a terminal in front of you.

What people say

No reviews yet.

We would rather show none than invent them.

Embed this status

Put it in your README. It updates itself every time we check, and links to your verification record — evidence a stranger can read, not a page selling them something.
