Nudge is a macOS menu-bar app that alerts you when Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or OpenAI Codex needs input, then jumps you back to the right terminal tab.
If you use Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or Codex and often come back to a terminal that has been waiting for input, Nudge is built for that exact moment. Happy to answer questions about how it works.
Really useful for anyone juggling multiple AI sessions. One thing that would make it even better: add a small unread badge counter on the menu bar icon showing how many sessions currently need attention, so you can tell at a glance whether it's one tab or five waiting on you.
honestly this looks super useful, i run like 3 agents at once and constantly miss the prompts. one thing though, it would be great if you could add a small sound or custom notification tone per app, since the default macOS ping kind of blends in when im heads down on something else. maybe even a quick preview of what the prompt is asking before i switch over
The auto-switching back to the exact terminal tab is such a thoughtful touch, it shows the team actually used this themselves and got tired of hunting through windows. Really clean execution for a problem most CLI users just live with.
Love how lightweight this stays in the menu bar without becoming another notification nightmare. The idea of jumping straight to the exact terminal tab instead of just pinging is the kind of detail that shows real thought about the workflow.
