Agent Meter – Native macOS menu bar monitor for CLI coding agents

A developer released Agent Meter, a native macOS menu bar monitor that detects active Claude Code, Codex CLI, Copilot CLI, and Antigravity CLI sessions running inside the Rex terminal in real time. Agent Meter shows an amber menu bar alert when an agent pauses for permission and lets users click "Allow ⏎" or "Deny Esc" inline, previews the latest terminal output of local and SSH sessions, tracks each session's 5-segment context window usage as a percentage, and launches new sessions from a "+" menu. The app requires macOS 14.0+, the Rex terminal (other terminal emulators are not supported), and Swift 6.0+, and is built via `zsh scripts/build-app.sh` or `swift build -c release`.
