README
kitty-agent-status
Your kitty tabs show what each coding agent is doing.
Blue while it works, amber when it needs you, back to normal when it's done.
Run several agents across kitty tabs and you lose track of which one is grinding, which one is blocked on you, and which one finished ten minutes ago. `kitty-agent-status` paints each tab by state, so a glance at the tab bar tells you where to look. No daemon, no dependencies - just your agents' own lifecycle events wired to `kitten @ set-tab-color`.
The states
| Tab color | State | Means |
|---|---|---|
| 🔵 blue | working |
the agent is generating right now |
| 🟠 amber | needs-input |
it is blocked on you - a permission prompt, or Codex finished its turn |
| ⚪ default | done |
idle / finished - nothing for you to do |
A finished agent reverts to your normal tab color, so amber always means *act on me*.

Each agent exposes a different signal, so the tab is driven from whatever each one offers:
