> Launched v1.2 in December 2025, then took a 4-month break. v1.3 (April 2026) works through the backlog of contributor PRs and bug reports and kicks off a regular cadence again. Open PRs and issues are being reviewed — thanks for your patience.
## Features
- **Notch UI** — Animated overlay that expands from the MacBook notch
- **Live Session Monitoring** — Track multiple Claude Code sessions in real-time
- **Permission Approvals** — Approve or deny tool executions directly from the notch
- **Chat History** — View full conversation history with markdown rendering
- **Auto-Setup** — Hooks install automatically on first launch
## Requirements
- macOS 15.6+
- Claude Code CLI
## Install
Download the latest release or build from source:
```bash
xcodebuild -scheme ClaudeIsland -configuration Release build
```
## How It Works
Vibe Notch installs hooks into `~/.claude/hooks/` that communicate session state via a Unix socket. The app listens for events and displays them in the notch overlay.
When Claude needs permission to run a tool, the notch expands with approve/deny buttons—no need to switch to the terminal.
## Analytics
Vibe Notch uses Mixpanel to collect anonymous usage data:
- **App Launched** — App version, build number, macOS version
- **Session Started** — When a new Claude Code session is detected
No personal data or conversation content is collected.
