wtf is claudewatch?

{"i":0,"repo":"renereose/claudewatch","stars":1,"lang":"Swift","ok":true,"char_count":1863,"text":"claudewatch is a small macOS app for people who run multiple Claude Code sessions at the same time. Claude Code is an AI coding assistant, and when you have several sessions going in different terminal tabs or editor windows, it is easy to lose track of which one finished its task and which one is sitting idle waiting for you to answer a question or approve a permission prompt. claudewatch solves this by showing a floating window that summarizes the status of every active session at a glance.\n\nThe widget reads Claude Code's own local session logs, which live under the .claude directory in your home folder. It does not run a server, does not send data anywhere, and does not require any extra dependencies. It links only against built-in macOS system frameworks, so there is no separate runtime to install.\n\nEach session appears as a card showing whether it is working, waiting for input, done, or interrupted. When a session needs your attention, the app surfaces the specific reason, such as an open dialog or a permission prompt, and moves that session to the top of the list. Cards also display the model being used, the permission mode, optional CPU and memory usage, and a host badge indicating where the session runs, such as Terminal, iTerm2, Warp, Cursor, or VS Code. You can click any card to jump directly to that terminal tab or editor window.\n\nThere are two display modes: a full list view and a compact bubble mode that can sit unobtrusively in a corner. The bubble glows amber when a session needs input. A menu-bar widget is also available, showing a live count of sessions with a small status symbol. Settings let you control opacity, notifications, whether the window floats above everything else, and more.\n\nInstallation involves downloading a zip file from the GitHub releases page and dragging the app to your Applications folder. Because the app is not notarized by Apple, macOS will block it on first launch, and you need to approve it through System Settings or run a terminal command to clear the quarantine flag. You can also build the app from source using a provided build script, which requires only the Xcode Command Line Tools.","error":null}
