Hey HN, I built an OS notch tool, Topsoiil because I kept alt-tabbing to check on my coding agents, dragging and dropping files/screenshots and listening to music. Topsoil lives in the notch of your MacBook.
It's a native SwiftUI app, that turns the botch into a small panel that expands on hover and has: Live terminal panes for Claude Code, codex, and cursor cli, a "Now Playing" section for Music/Spotify, Calendar, Battery/CPU/Ram, a tiny pixel plant besides the terminal panes that grows while you code, 3x faster while an agent is actually running that needs to be fed and watered, plus much more!
Would love any and all feedback!
