Every agent, one glance

All your sessions, in the notch

Claude Code, Grok, and Copilot — running in your terminal or IDE — surface in a single view. Hover the notch to expand; click a session to jump straight to it.

Features

Built for people juggling agents

◱

Notch-native

A pill that hugs the notch and expands into a full session panel. Never blocks the menu bar or your windows.

✳

Every agent

Claude Code (terminal, VS Code, Cursor, Desktop), Grok, and GitHub Copilot — discovered automatically, no config.

✓

Approve from the notch

Claude Code and Cursor permission requests show an inline diff. Allow or deny with ⌘Y / ⌘N — the decision flows straight back.

→

Click to jump

Click a session to focus its terminal or IDE — detected via TERM_PROGRAM, so integrated terminals land in the right window.

◌

Usage at a glance

See tokens used per session and live working / idle status, with the latest activity line and git branch.

♪

8-bit sound alerts

Synthesized chiptune cues for permission, approve, deny, and done. No audio files — generated at runtime.

⌂

Fully local

No cloud, no accounts, no telemetry. Reads each agent's session history on your Mac. Nothing leaves the machine.

✦

Pure Swift

Native SwiftUI, no Electron. Universal build for Apple Silicon & Intel, under 100 MB RAM.

FAQ

Questions

Does my data leave my machine?

No. Agent Isle reads each agent's local session history and runs a localhost-only event server. There's no cloud, no account, and no telemetry.

Which agents are supported?

Claude Code (terminal, VS Code, Cursor, and Desktop sessions), the Cursor CLI (cursor-agent), Grok, and GitHub Copilot work out of the box. Any other tool can appear by POSTing to the local event server.

Do I need to configure anything?

Monitoring is automatic and hook-free. To also approve permissions from the notch, Agent Isle can add hooks to your Claude Code or Cursor config — it asks on first launch, with an opt-out, and you can toggle it anytime from the gear menu.

Is it really free?

Yes — MIT licensed and open source. Download a build from Releases or build it yourself with swift build.

Why does macOS warn on first launch?

Release builds are ad-hoc signed, not notarized. Right-click the app → Open the first time, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Agent Isle.app".
