What it does

  • A companion app for Claude Code that renders live Activity and Tasks windows from Claude Code's hook events — reading events only, asynchronously and fail-open, so a companion issue can never cost a coding session.
  • Built in Swift 6 with a pure-logic core behind a SwiftUI and AppKit interface, held to a 100% core-coverage gate, strict formatting, and golden-fixture decoder tests in GitHub Actions CI.
  • Shipped as a free download for Apple silicon with a curl-piped installer and DMG, rolling and versioned releases, and a published project site.

Keyboard shortcuts

The page has three zones: Pages (the top bar), On this page (the list beside Experience and Skills) and Content. The zone you are in is outlined.

← →
In Pages: previous or next page. In Content: the card or section to the left or right; at the left edge, ← goes back to the “On this page” list.
↓ ↑
From Pages, ↓ enters the page. Then move through the list or the content; → goes from the list into its section.
Enter
Open the highlighted item, or open/close a role (Space also opens or closes a highlighted role). In a card with several links, the arrows reach each link.
Esc
On a project page: back to the projects, with its card highlighted. Elsewhere: back one zone (Content, then On this page, then Pages); twice quickly: back to the top.
Mouse
The arrows start in the zone and at the item under the pointer.
?
Show this list (or use the ? button at the bottom left). Esc closes it.
