Each session is one little Claude, coloured by what it's up to — amber is busy, green is done and waiting on you, pink needs a decision. a single agent A real terminal, not a recording. Every Claude runs in its own live terminal — here, or in Ghostty, Terminal, or iTerm. Type to it, watch it think. It's the real process, not a replay. what it's up to Followed down to the token.

Point a new Claude at the repo, one of its worktrees, a branch, or a fresh branch you name — and see where it'll land before you send it. not just agents Your own tasks, same pen. The scripts your project already ships — package.json, a justfile, VS Code tasks, a Makefile — run in these panes too. A run is just another session: its exit code is its status. pace yourself See the limit coming. episko keeps an eye on your 5-hour and weekly limits and reads the pace. The footer warms from amber to red well before you'd hit a wall. where the time went The whole story, kept at home. A full history of spend, tokens by model, cost per session, and busiest days — all on your machine, nothing sent anywhere.
