A floating Mac widget that shows what every AI coding session and build job is doing right now.
Cut the widget's CPU use from 12 to 25 percent down to about 0.2 percent by moving animation to Core Animation layers
- Problem
- Running many agent sessions at once meant clicking around all day to see which were working, stuck or done.
- My role
- Solo builder: the session-state collector, the state rules, the native widget and the CPU tuning.
- Shipped
- A floating Mac app and the background collector that feeds it.
- Stack
- Outcome
- An audit script re-checks a week of sessions against the state rules
