Original: shiibar-cc: a tiny "your turn" indicator for Claude Code + iTerm2
Short summary
shiibar-cc is a free macOS menu bar app that monitors multiple Claude Code sessions running in iTerm2 tabs and alerts you when a session needs your input — a permission prompt, a completed task, or an error state. It uses Claude Code's hooks to report session events to a local daemon, with all processing staying on your machine and nothing sent to any server. Install via Homebrew with `brew install --cask bufferings/tap/shiibar-cc`; requires macOS 13+, Apple Silicon, iTerm2, and Claude Code.
- •Menu bar app watches Claude Code sessions in iTerm2 and notifies when input is needed
