BroGlow

A local session monitor for Claude Code, opencode, Codex and GitHub Copilot CLI, with a menu-bar app, terminal dashboard and optional ESP32-C3 status lamp. The lamp, connected over USB or Bluetooth LE, shows working, idle and needs-input states.

You can [install and configure BroGlow](site/guide/en/installation.md) before you build or get a lamp. The app and terminal dashboard already show your local agent sessions and their status without any hardware; add a lamp whenever you're ready.
