The full story
claude-panel is a round ESP32-S3 AMOLED display for the desk that shows every open Claude Code and Codex session on a Mac as a small pixel character: orange for Claude Code, blue for Codex. The characters animate by state, such as working, waiting for permission or napping, and a ring shows how much of the current five-hour usage block is used.
You can approve permission requests with a tap and start new sessions by voice, using whisper.cpp running locally. Hooks in both tools feed a small server on the Mac, which talks to the board over signed HTTP on the local network. The screen dims and shifts slightly to avoid burn-in.
