Live Codex task status in your macOS menu bar

What it does

AgentMicro is a local-first macOS menu-bar companion for supervising parallel Codex Desktop and CLI tasks. It surfaces task state, project, elapsed time, and results at a glance, then opens the matching Codex Desktop task with one click. It observes local metadata only and never uploads prompts, responses, source code, or task history.

AgentMicro keeps the live state of your Codex tasks in the macOS menu bar.

Track parallel Codex tasks, projects, and results without reopening Codex. See thinking, unread results, input requests, errors, and idle tasks at a glance. Open the matching Codex Desktop conversation directly from the task menu. AgentMicro reads local session metadata. It never uploads prompts, code, responses, or task history. Working tasks stay first. Each row adds the project, current-turn duration, and a fast-mode marker, so you can decide where to return without searching through windows. Base mode needs no Accessibility permission and no account. Optional enhanced detection is explicitly enabled, reads visible local labels only, and never clicks, types, or approves anything for you.…from agentmicro.cc

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
