Notch Island — Development skill for Claude Code

Notch Island

**A Dynamic Island for your coding agents.** Watch every Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode session from your Mac's notch, approve tool calls with one click, and jump straight back to the right terminal pane.

Free, open source, fully local: no account, no server, no network calls, no telemetry.

Features

• Every session at a glance. Each running agent gets a card with its title, your last prompt, the tool it is running right now and its last reply. Five cards show at once; the rest scroll.
• Approve from the notch. When an agent asks for permission, the island opens with the exact command and four buttons: Allow, Always allow, Deny, or Terminal (answer it in the terminal instead). File edits show a diff of the changed lines with +/− counts.
• Answer questions. When Claude asks a question with options, click one to answer it from the notch.
• Keyboard shortcuts. While a request waits: ⌘Y allows, ⌘N denies, ⌘1-⌘4 pick an answer. The keys are only taken while something waits, so they work as usual the rest of the time.
• Jump back. Click a card to bring its terminal forward, down to the exact pane in WezTerm and tmux; any other terminal or editor is brought to the front.
• Plan usage. Beside the notch, each agent in use shows its limits next to its icon: Claude's 5-hour and 7-day windows (Pro and Max plans) and Codex's own windows.
• Resizable. Drag the island's sides to make it wider or narrower, or its bottom edge to show more or fewer cards; the poi
