Faster than wondering whether *it's me or it's Claude* and then opening a browser tab.\n\n[![macOS](https://img.shields.io/badge/macOS-14%2B-blue)](#requirements)\n[![Swift](https://img.shields.io/badge/Swift-5.9-orange)](#)\n[![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-green)](LICENSE)\n[![GitHub Release](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/robbertvancaem/claude-status-bar?label=release)](https://github.com/robbertvancaem/claude-status-bar/releases)\n[![Downloads](https://img.shields.io/github/downloads/robbertvancaem/claude-status-bar/total.svg?label=downloads)](https://github.com/robbertvancaem/claude-status-bar/releases)\n\n## Install\n\n```bash\nbrew install robbertvancaem/tap/claude-status-bar\nopen \"/Applications/Claude Status Bar.app\"\n```\n\nThat's it. No Apple Developer cert, no `xattr` dance — the cask strips the quarantine flag for you on install.\n\nTo launch on login: drag `/Applications/Claude Status Bar.app` into **System Settings → General → Login Items**.\n\n### Updating\n\n```bash\nbrew upgrade --cask claude-status-bar\n```\n\n## What it does\n\n- Polls `status.claude.com` every 10 seconds.\n- Shows a single SF Symbol (`sparkles`) in the menu bar:\n  - **Operational** — rendered as a template icon, adopting the macOS menu bar theme (white in dark mode, black in light mode). Blends in like a native icon when there's nothing to worry about.\n  - **Minor / Major / Critical** — colored sparkle (yellow / orange / red) at 50% opacity, drawing just enough attention without being aggressive.\n- Click the icon for a per-component breakdown (claude.ai, Console, API, Claude Code, Cowork, Government).\n- Optional native macOS notification on state transitions (e.g. operational → minor). Toggleable from the dropdown.\n\nNo usage tracking, no Claude Code session monitoring, no settings UI to wade through. Just up/down.\n\n## Build from source\n\nIf you'd rather build it yourself (no Homebrew dependency):\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/robbertvancaem/claude-status-bar.git\ncd claude-status-bar\n./build.sh\nopen \"/Applications/Claude Status Bar.app\"\n```\n\nNeeds Xcode Command Line Tools (`xcode-select --install`) and macOS 14+. The build script compiles a release binary via Swift Package Manager and drops the `.app` bundle into `/Applications/`. Re-running `build.sh` updates the binary in place (ad-hoc signed).\n\n## Architecture\n\nA single-file SwiftUI `MenuBarExtra` app:\n\n| File | Purpose |\n|------|---------|\n| `Sources/App.swift` | Entry point + menu bar icon |\n| `Sources/StatusModel.swift` | Polls Statuspage v2 endpoints, decodes, holds state |\n| `Sources/StatusViews.swift` | Dropdown menu content |\n| `build.sh` | Build \u0026 install (Swift Package Manager → `.app` bundle) |\n\nThe Statuspage v2 API (`/api/v2/status.json` + `/api/v2/components.json`) is public and unauthenticated, so the app makes plain `URLSession` requests every 10 seconds and parses with `Codable`.\n\n## Configuration\n\nThere isn't really any. The poll interval is hard-coded to 10 seconds — fast enough to catch a status change before you finish swearing at your terminal, slow enough that `status.claude.com` won't blink.\n\nThe only toggle exposed is **Notify on status changes**, persisted in `UserDefaults`.\n\n## Requirements\n\nmacOS 14 (Sonoma) or later.\n\n## License\n\nMIT — see [LICENSE](LICENSE).\n\n## Not affiliated with Anthropic\n\nThis is an unofficial tool. \"Claude\" and \"Anthropic\" are trademarks of Anthropic. The app only reads the public status page that Anthropic publishes for everyone.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frobbertvancaem%2Fclaude-status-bar","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frobbertvancaem%2Fclaude-status-bar","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frobbertvancaem%2Fclaude-status-bar/lists"}
