A menu bar traffic light for your AI coding agents

Agent Signals is a tiny macOS menu bar app for developers who run Claude Code and Codex in iTerm. It turns silent agent state changes into traffic-light counters (waiting, working, done) and focuses the right tab in one click. Free, open source, notarized.
I run several Claude Code and Codex sessions in iTerm at once, and I kept losing time to a silly problem: an agent finishes or asks for approval, the terminal pings once, I'm on a call and the session just sits there idle.
Agent Signals is my fix: a tiny native macOS menu bar app that turns agent state into a traffic light. š“ waiting for your input, š” working, š¢ finished, your turn. Click a session in the dropdown and it focuses the right iTerm tab.
A few things that mattered to me while building it:
ā 100% local: it reads small JSON status files written by Claude Code / Codex hooks. No telemetry, no network calls.
ā Native SwiftUI, Developer ID notarized direct download, MIT licensed.
ā It's my first macOS app ā feedback on the product and the code is very welcome.
Known limits: Codex terminal has no approval hook, so Codex shows working/done only; iTerm2 only for now.
What other agents or terminals would you want supported?
