About claude-status-bar

Claude Status Bar A tiny macOS menu bar app that shows Claude Code's live status: an animated Claude icon while it's thinking or running a tool, a yellow dot when it's awaiting your permission, and the elapsed time of the current turn. Lightweight, no window, no dock icon, no usage dashboards. Built so you can tab away during a long "thinking" stretch and still see, at a glance, whether Claude is working, waiting on you, or done. [!IMPORTANT] Multi-session support. When several Claude Code sessions run at once (multiple terminals, or a terminal plus the desktop app), the menu bar surfaces the highest-priority one: a session awaiting your permission is never hidden behind one that's thinking. The dropdown lists every live session. Click a session to jump to it: desktop sessions focus the Claude app, terminal sessions bring their terminal app to the front. Precise per-tab focus is in progress: [issue #19 →
