You start a long task in Claude Code, Codex or Cursor and walk away. When you come back, you see from across the room if an agent needs you, which tasks finished, which are still running and for how long, and how much of your usage limits is left. The screen saver shows the time anyway while you are away, so it is the right place to show this too.

What it does

Each agent task gets a card: what it works on, for how long, its project, model and branch, and how full the context is. The rings show how much of your 5-hour and weekly limits is used and when they reset. When an agent waits for your approval, a large card says which agent, which project and what it wants to run. A sound plays when the screen saver is showing. With no tasks, you see the clock and your limits. A second display shows only the background and the clock.

The pictures are of the real screen saver with made-up data. First the Chrome theme:
