Four states.
One glanceable label.

Overline adapts its appearance to show exactly what each session is doing.

_OS/overline Building marketing website

Active session

The golden accent bar shimmers while Claude Code is running. You can see at a glance which windows have active sessions.

_OS/overline Session complete

Session complete

When a background session finishes and goes idle, the entire label turns golden. Impossible to miss, even across multiple monitors.

_OS/overline Waiting for input

Waiting for input

A quiet, solid accent bar with no animation. The session is connected but paused, waiting for your next prompt.
