For Claude Code and Codex

Your agents,
in the notch.

Lumio turns the MacBook notch into a quiet control room. Every session becomes a little person in a pixel office. One glance, and you know who needs you.

You run three agents at once. One is done. One is waiting for your “yes”. One crashed ten minutes ago. And you find out only when you switch windows.

The notch

It calls when it needs you.

When an agent asks for permission or a question, the notch glows soft silver and a dot appears in the menu bar. Answer — and it goes quiet.

Every session, in plain words.

Hover the notch: what each agent is doing right now, its plan and how long it has been at it.

What it did. What it changed.

The start of the answer, the files it touched and one click back to the project.

The office

Every agent gets a desk.

Double‑tap the right ⌘ and a pixel office grows out of the notch. Working agents type at their iMacs, the one who needs you stands up, and the ones who are done go for coffee.

Real daylight.

Sunrise, sunset and night follow the real sun. At night the lamps glow and the screens light up faces.

A thought? Right ⌥.

Tap, type, Enter — it’s saved. To Lumio, your Obsidian daily note, any folder or Apple Notes.

Music

Your music, glowing around the notch.

Now playing from any player or browser tab, with the colours of the cover breathing around the notch.

A notch on every display.

External monitors get a virtual one.

A dev log that writes itself.

What got done, fixed and what’s next — in Obsidian.

Your limits on the wall.

Claude’s 5‑hour and weekly limits on the office board.

Every pixel, drawn in code.

Even the lo‑fi soundtrack. No stock assets.

Everything stays on your Mac.

No accounts, no tracking. No Accessibility or Screen Recording permission. Lumio reads your agents’ local files — and nothing goes to the network unless you turn it on. The daily update check only tells us that one more Mac uses Lumio — by a random number, nothing about you.

Get Lumio.

Free. Ten seconds to install.

No notch? Lumio draws a virtual one. The dev log needs Obsidian.

Almost there.

Lumio is downloading. The first time you open it, macOS asks you to confirm — only once.

    Move it to Applications

    In Downloads you’ll find Lumio (if there’s only Lumio.zip, open it first). Drag Lumio into Applications.

    Open it and click “Done”

    macOS doesn’t know Lumio yet and stops it. Click Done — not “Move to Trash”.
