Evlat is a thin strip on your Mac's screen edge, one ring per Claude Code or Codex session. When one needs a permission or an answer, it turns amber; one click opens its terminal tab. It also tracks long commands and remote servers. Native, no permissions.

Doesnt track Codex session
Evlat
@vilmer_frost Thanks for flagging! You're most likely using the Codex desktop app. Evlat tracks Codex through its official hooks, and right now the desktop app doesn't run hooks at all. The same ~/.codex/hooks.json fires every event from the Codex CLI but nothing from the app. It's a known upstream regression: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/21639
So today Evlat tracks Codex CLI sessions. Once OpenAI fixes hooks in the app, those sessions should show up with no change on Evlat's side. If you're on the CLI and still see nothing, let me know and I'll dig in!
How do you detect that a session is waiting on input with no macOS permissions at all? I'm guessing you read the session files Claude Code and Codex write to disk, and if so I'm curious how you plan to keep up when either CLI changes its format in an update. The SSH part for remote servers is the bit I didn't expect.

@can_dizdar Good guess, but it's mostly not session files. Evlat uses hooks, Claude Code's and Codex's official extension point. Setup adds a tiny curl command that POSTs each event to a loopback-only local server. That's why no macOS permissions are needed, just localhost HTTP.
"Waiting" comes straight from those events: a permission request or a question means the agent is blocked on you. The session files are only a supplement (session name, liveness) and are treated as estimates. If their format changes, a detail goes quiet, but the core signal still rides on the documented hook API.
SSH: remote sessions use the same hooks. Evlat opens an ssh -R reverse tunnel so the server's hooks report back to your Mac, each machine with its own key.
