Saggar

Developers who run several terminal sessions at once — shells, dev servers, test runs, coding agents — face a simple attention problem: knowing which of those sessions actually needs a human right now, versus which are just quietly running or already finished. Scanning a row of undifferentiated terminal tabs to find the one that's stuck waiting for input doesn't scale past a handful of panes. Saggar is a native macOS application built to solve exactly that: it tracks every session and categorizes each one by state — needs you, working, idle, finished, or failed — so the sessions requiring action stand out instead of blending into the rest.

Sessions in Saggar stay attached to the project and branch they belong to, so context is not lost when switching between them. A priority-based queue, reachable with a keyboard shortcut, surfaces prompts and completed work in the order that matters most. A companion mobile app lets a user monitor and control sessions remotely, with account-based pairing for security, which is useful for checking on long-running agent work while away from the desk.

Radar Assessment

Saggar is placed in Assess. It addresses a real and growing problem — notification fatigue across agent-heavy terminal workflows — but there is no confirmed first-person production use of the tool yet, which is required to move it to Trial.
