Chimlo

Chimlo is a sleek, open-source macOS application designed for developers and AI enthusiasts who frequently work with Codex and Claude Code. It seamlessly integrates these AI agents into the MacBook notch, providing real-time status updates on their activities—whether they are working, waiting, finished, or failed—without the need to hunt through terminal windows. Users can easily answer Claude Code queries, review permission requests, and monitor provider usage directly from the menu bar, making workflow management more efficient. Beyond AI integrations, Chimlo offers media controls, volume, and brightness adjustments, complemented by animated pixel companions that visually indicate different states, adding a touch of fun to utility. Its open-source nature encourages customization and community involvement, making it a versatile tool for developers, AI researchers, and power users looking to streamline their coding and AI interaction processes.
