AItention

Your sessions run in parallel.
Your attention cannot.

AItention brings every running Claude Code session into one status overview — from the terminal, from JetBrains IDEs, from the tabs of the Claude desktop app. Whatever is waiting for input sits at the top. Whatever failed is visible at once.

What you see at a glance

The status overview as it looks in daily use. The marked points explain themselves on click.

1 Background jobs with live output

A build, a test suite, a deploy: whatever a session started in the background appears in its row — with running output and exit code. A job that fails after twenty minutes otherwise surfaces only when someone goes looking.

2 Branch and working directory

Every row names the checked-out branch. Across several repositories and worktrees that is the detail deciding whether a change lands where it belongs — read without invoking git, worktrees included.

3 Permission mode per session

Whether a session runs tools without asking, or may write files, is shown in colour next to its name. In shared repositories that is a governance question, not a display option.

4 Task list and subagents

When a session keeps a task list, the row shows the progress and the task it is working on — in the session's own words. Running subagents are counted, so a long silence is not mistaken for a standstill.

5 Consumption with history

Both rate-limit windows as a gauge, plus consumption per hour, peak and history over 24 hours, 7 and 30 days. Enough to plan when which work runs — instead of discovering at the limit that it no longer does.

6 Read the reply without switching windows

A session's last reply expands right in the overview, ready to copy. With a dozen sessions running, that decides whether you touch a session at all — or let it carry on.

Also included

  • Failure causes in plain words. Rate limit, server overload, billing, invalid request — named, not merely "failed". The difference between restarting and waiting it out.
  • Context fill per session. How full the context is, and when a session compacts it. Explains a long silence before it worries you.
  • Resume dormant sessions. Finished sessions stay listed, and the resume command is one click away on the clipboard.
  • Everything from the menu bar. Counters, waiting and running sessions, consumption — without opening a window.
  • Jump to the right project window. With several projects open in one IDE, the matching one comes forward.
  • Filters, grouping, favourites. Group by state, application or project, combine several filters, pin what matters.
