What it does
xIsland turns the notch into mission control for Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI, etc. Never miss a permission prompt, see every session at a glance, answer questions, approve requests, and jump back to the right terminal panel in one click. Local-first, no cloud, no account.
Monitor, approve, and manage Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode right from your macOS notch. Free native Swift app.
Stay in flow while your AI coding agents work. Monitor, approve, and jump back. Right from the macOS notch. The dynamic island sits in your macOS notch. Expands when your AI coding agent needs attention. Collapses when it doesn't. Floating pill on your menu bar. Compact, always visible — monitor your AI coding agents without losing focus. Every AI agent session at a glance from your dynamic island. Status, progress, what they're up to — all from the macOS notch. Intercept file edits, commands, and deletions before your AI coding agent runs them. Right from the dynamic island, you stay in control. Your AI agent has a question. Answer from the dynamic island popup, no window switching…from xisland.app

Talanoa▲340Hi 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…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
