Anthropic removed /buddy from Claude Code after a week. Buddi keeps your buddy alive β in the MacBook notch. Your buddy animates based on what Claude is doing: working, reading, sleeping, erroring out. 18 species, rarity tiers from common to legendary, unique eyes and hats. Monitor multiple Claude Code sessions, approve permissions from the notch, chat with full history. Also works as a notch utility with music, calendar, battery, and file shelf. Native Swift. Free. Open source.

Been living in Claude Code daily for months so totally get this. Quick q on the notch UX, what does it show when Claude is mid tool call versus waiting for input? That transition is the thing I keep wanting better visibility on, especially during long agent runs.

@keith_hiyamojoΒ Great question! The notch currently distinguishes 3 distinct states during agent runs:
1. Tool Execution (Processing)
An animated orange spinner cycles on the right side of the notch, so you always know Claude is actively working.
2. Waiting for Approval
When a tool call needs your permission, an amber question mark icon appears next to the buddy face. The spinner keeps running on the right.
3. Waiting for Input
Once Claude finishes and is ready for your next prompt, the spinner is replaced with a green checkmark.
Better visibility during long runs is something I've been thinking about too β like surfacing the current tool name or progress info directly in the notch. Would love to hear what specific info you'd want to see at a glance.
