Native macOS companion for Claude Code. A floating retro pager that shows you what Claude is doing so you stop babysitting your terminal. Real-time LCD status with pixel art animations Four auto-accept modes (Strict / Relaxed / Trusted / YOLO) Voice input and spoken recaps Hotkeys, always on top Customisable themes, size, voice 100% local. Zero dependencies. Open source.

Love the retro pager concept. It makes something pretty technical feel way more approachable. How did you decide what states and signals were most important to show in real time?

Seriously, the state that attracted me the most was the error: “Something went wrong.”
A lot of times, I only see a summary at the very end of the run, and I end up getting lost in what actually happened during the execution flow. The real issue is that when there are multiple errors and the claude tries to handle them on its own, it becomes painful on my side. It affects the whole workflow.
Instead of finding out only at the end, I’d rather get real-time signals about errors as they happen, so I can step in immediately and help, rather than reacting after everything is already done. COOL!

This is super cool.
One suggestion: you could consider color-coding the statuses based on whether there's input needed from the user. (eg. "done" -> green, "error" -> red, "needs input" -> yellow).

naming the top trust level "yolo" is the most honest ux decision i've seen in a dev tool. been running claude code for months — you always end up at two extremes: approve everything manually or just run
--dangerouslySkipPermissions and hope. strict to yolo as an actual dial makes trust a real decision.

This looks really great. I hope we have something similar for Windows Laptop too, sooner. Just in case, if there are multiple Claude sessions going on, how it will react, I am curious to know that.

@akshay_k_hireid Hey, that's awesome :) let me know if I can help out. I answered Nayan above about that.

This is so fun. Did you ever think about trying to connect this with a real beeper? I also can't believe this is your first open source project. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what you're building. This was great. Well done @vecartier!

@gabe Thank you so much, it means so freaking much to get feedback like this!! I have not tried it yet, but that would be awesome. I'd pay for it haha

@vecartier Using it as I dictate! Claude, look into the feasibility of using with real peeper. It seems like it is possible, but it needs to be really hacky, maybe for another summer project when I have free time.

@gabe So I came across this today: https://x.com/SIGKITTEN/status/2044194689700524446?s=20. I think it could be interesting to rebuild it, using the new Claude desktop app feature. Right now it doesn't work with hardware or with the desktop app, but it's probably possible. Would be super interesting to dig into it eheh
Having a beeper UI on my desktop in 2026 was not on my bingo card for the year.

@jared_rhodes Imagine making one in 2026 even though you've never actually seen one in real life... Maybe I should have been an industrial designer instead of a software one eh
