Glint: Claude Code activity, right where you want it.

I run multiple Claude Code sessions throughout the day, and I got tired of constantly alt-tabbing into terminal windows to answer two questions: Is it done? And is it waiting on me? So I built Glint a lightweight macOS menu bar app that surfaces Claude Code activity in a Dynamic Island-style overlay near the notch. If you're not a notch fan, there's also a draggable floating pill that works over full-screen apps, plus a Dock-side bar that uses otherwise wasted screen space. What Glint shows: - Live status: thinking, idle, or waiting for input. This was the main reason I built it—no more sessions sitting blocked for 20 minutes because I forgot about them. - Per-turn tokens, cost, and elapsed time, matching Claude Code's own status line. - Current plans and active sub-agents. - Context window usage. - Multiple sessions at once: the one needing attention takes priority, while the rest remain visible in an expanded view. - Session and weekly usage limits, complete with reset countdowns. - Optional subtle sounds when a task finishes or requires input. Privacy: Glint reads the session logs Claude Code already writes to ~/.claude, entirely on-device. No telemetry, no data leaves your Mac. The only network request is license validation. Performance: Near-zero CPU usage at idle, even with hundreds of MB of session history. Glint only tails actively written transcripts and refreshes at most once per second.
