README
What is Nudgy?
**Nudgy is a free, open-source macOS menu bar app that sends you native notifications when AI coding agents like [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) finish a task, need permissions, or ask a question.** It sits in your menu bar and watches your agent sessions so you can context-switch to other work without constantly checking your terminal.
Nudgy is **privacy-first and fully local** — your conversations and code never leave your machine. No telemetry, no analytics, no remote logging. The only network activity is receiving hook events from your own Claude Code process over `127.0.0.1`.
Currently supports [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) (CLI, VS Code, Desktop App), with architecture designed for additional AI coding agents (Aider, Codex CLI, Cursor, etc.) in the future.
Key Features
- Floating popup notifications — 5 visual presets (Minimal, Pill, Glass, Card, Banner), configurable screen position
- Menu bar session tracker — live session indicators, attention alerts with "Go" button, per-session
