Coucou

by Louis-CFM

A little character that sits in your Mac's notch (or the top of the screen on Windows and Linux) and keeps an eye on your coding agents.

Why it's useful

It watches your Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI sessions and tells you when one is done or wants permission, and you can approve from the notch or your iPhone lock screen. Saves flicking back to the terminal every minute.

What it needs

A Mac on macOS 15 or later (no notch needed). The app isn't signed by Apple, so macOS asks you to allow it. The iPhone app is a free TestFlight beta
