CLUSTER CODING-AGENTS-MONITORS · 35 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-04-29

Mac AI coding agent monitors

This cluster comprises Mac utilities that monitor AI coding agents, displaying their status, file changes, and input requests to developers. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only two predated entries exist, so the cluster predates the index or its members are undated. Traction is led by factorylog (56 stars), followed by Taskhub-for-StickS3 (28 stars) and grux (25 stars).

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
