Features

Know which agent needs you

Every Claude Code and Codex task on your Mac in one panel, with its live state: working, thinking, waiting for permission or input, or done. Search, filter, pin and hide sessions. Live Terminal and iTerm2 sessions open in their own tab.

Background work, told once

Claude's background commands, subagents and monitors appear as a small count on the session. A reply that leaves them running stays in the background, and one notification arrives when the work is done. If a turn fails, Lunavect says why: a reached limit and when it returns, a lost connection, or a sign-in issue.

Usage limits at a glance

Weekly and five-hour allowances for Claude and Codex, with reset times. Show them in the menu bar as bars, percentages or rings. Unknown values stay unknown.

Stop a session at your share of the week

Two-finger click a Claude Code or Codex session and choose Limit Usage…. Near your level the agent finishes its step and writes what is done and what is left; at the level its next action is refused. Nothing is killed, and your own message lifts the stop. Lunavect continues the session after the reset in its own Terminal or iTerm2 tab, or at a time you choose with Continue Later….

Desktop widgets

Limits, activity or both, in small, medium and large sizes. Choose a solid background or adjustable glass.

See where your time goes

Working time by day, week, month, year and all time for each provider, with a calendar of working days, the hours you work, projects and sessions. The Agent Monitor shows tokens per session, project and model. Recovered history is marked as approximate.

Make it yours

Pick the Claude, Codex or Lunavect character, a one-line, two-line or activity-only status, and playful activity phrases while your agents work.

Also included: notifications when a response is ready, an approval or reply is needed, a turn fails or a limit runs low · Keep Awake while agents work · light and dark appearance · English, Russian, German, Spanish, French and Simplified Chinese

Install

With Homebrew

brew tap lovach/lunavect https://github.com/lovach/Lunavect
brew install --cask lovach/lunavect/lunavect

Or download Lunavect-0.2.8.dmg, open it and drag Lunavect to Applications. Every release is Developer ID signed and notarized by Apple, and updates arrive through Settings → Updates.

Then choose Connect Claude or Connect Codex. Claude needs Claude Code CLI; Claude Desktop alone is not enough. Codex needs the official Codex app or CLI. Connect one provider or both. Sign-in stays with the official clients.

For local VS Code, Cursor or JetBrains 2026.2 terminals, install the bundled companion from Settings → Connections → Sessions in editors to return to the exact session tab. See IDE setup and supported surfaces.

Privacy

Lunavect reads local client data and adds its event handlers when you connect a provider, keeping unrelated configuration intact. It extracts only session identity, state and timing, and never saves a copy of your conversations. Privacy and permissions · Connection details · How activity is counted

git clone https://github.com/lovach/Lunavect.git
