Notchy

A macOS menu bar app that puts Claude Code right in your MacBook's notch. Hover over the notch or click the menu bar icon to open a floating terminal panel with embedded sessions that automatically detect your open Xcode projects.

Features

• Notch integration — hover over the MacBook notch to reveal the terminal panel
• Xcode project detection — automatically discovers open Xcode projects and cds into them
• Multi-session tabs — run multiple Claude Code sessions side by side
• Live status in the notch — animated pill shows whether Claude is working, waiting, or done
• Git checkpoints — Cmd+S to snapshot your project before Claude makes changes

Requirements

• macOS 26.0+
• MacBook with a notch (for notch features; menu bar still works without one)

Building

Open Notchy.xcodeproj in Xcode and build (Cmd+B), or from the command line:

xcodebuild -project Notchy.xcodeproj -scheme Notchy -configuration Debug build

Dependencies

• SwiftTerm — terminal emulator view (via Swift Package Manager)
