lampboard 0.2.2
A floating column of traffic lights for your coding sessions — Claude Code and Codex, in VS Code, in a terminal, in a desktop app, on another machine.
Requires macOS 14 or later (macOS 26 for dictation).
Signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple: the disk image opens with a double click, no right-click needed.
Since 0.1.0
The project is now LampBoard. A lamp board is the annunciator panel of a signal box: one row of pilot lamps, each standing for a circuit, read at a glance and never operated. The old name was borrowed from the harness it happens to watch first.
Codex is a second harness. Its sessions appear without anyone announcing them — the panel adopts what a live process is holding a rollout open for, takes the folder from the rollout's own first record, and leaves the state idle because an open descriptor proves a conversation is loaded, not that it is working. A Codex row never turns red: Codex publishes no failure event, and silence does not tell a crash from a long turn.
Claude Desktop's local sessions are rows too. Its cloud sessions are not: nothing of them runs on this Mac.
One row per project, per machine. A folder here and a folder on another machine are two rows, and hiding one no longer hides both.
Rows can be reordered, renamed and dragged. The order is yours; a state lights a row up where it is.
Fixed since 0.1.0
The updater could never have worked. Accepting an update quit the app and left you on the same version, deterministically. It deleted the staged application milliseconds before installing it. If you are on 0.1.0, this is the release that makes updating work — and the one you have to install by hand.
