In plain words

Littleguys is a Mac menu bar application that displays multiple AI agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenClaw, and Hermes) as interactive characters. It lets users monitor agent activity, view status and messages, and respond to requests directly from the menu bar without switching between tabs or dashboards. Users can chat with agents, approve commands, and schedule tasks from a single window, with morning digests and recurring schedules available for managing routine operations.

From the sources

Your Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenClaw and Hermes agents, living in your Mac menu bar. See who's working, who has news and who needs you. Chat, approve and schedule them from one window. The guy in your menu bar acts out what your agents are doing. No dashboards, no tab-hunting. Click the guy for every agent on every machine, with a live status ring, the last message and a quick reply. Commands that need you show up as cards: allow once, always allow or deny. No more “[y/N]” buried in terminal tab #9. Morning digests, nightly dependency bumps, weekly numbers. Friendly schedules, run-now, and results that land in a thread. Guys on your Mac mini, your homelab and your laptop, all in one…from littleguys.hervalicio.us

    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.
