README
Agent Watch
A status bar chip that shows every running coding agent session at a glance: the Agent Watch robot, the number of agents working, and one dot per session. For now it supports [Claude Code](#supported-agents).
| Dot | Status | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 🟡 | Working | The agent is running a turn |
| 🔴 | Waiting | It needs your permission or an answer |
| 🟢 | Idle | It finished and is ready for more |
The number after the robot counts the agents working right now, like the Source Control count of changes; the panel's badge in the activity bar shows the same number. The robot takes the color of the most urgent status: red if any session is waiting, yellow if any is working. With no sessions, the chip says *No agents*, in the language VS Code uses (English and Spanish so far).
Supported agents
Agent Watch is not tied to a single agent, but for now it supports only Claude Code.
