A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR YOUR MAC
GChat.
Codex and Claude in your Mac menu bar.
A native Rust and GPUI app for working with Codex and Claude from a compact menu-bar panel. It runs the installed command-line agents and uses their existing authentication. Public source is being prepared; there is no packaged installer yet. It does not have an approval dialog, so CLI actions requiring approval may stall.
