About Masko Code

Masko Code is a innovative desktop mascot designed for developers working with Claude Code agents. It simplifies managing multiple AI agents by providing real-time oversight directly on your desktop, eliminating the need for constant alt-tabbing and permission approvals. With intuitive shortcuts like ⌘1 for permission prompts, ⌘M to jump to terminals, and double-tap ⌘ to switch sessions, it streamlines workflow and reduces interruptions. The mascot interface, featuring Clippy and community-created characters, adds a fun, engaging element to productivity. Since it's open source and 100% local, users can customize and generate their own mascots at masko.ai, ensuring privacy and flexibility. Its user-friendly design and real-time tracking make it ideal for developers and AI practitioners who want better control and visibility over their Claude Code agents while maintaining a playful, personalized workspace.
