Chive is a native Mac app that shows you what all your Claude Code instances are doing at a glance. If you’re running multiple sessions across different projects, it’s easy to lose track of what’s working, what’s waiting, and what’s looking for something to do. Chive provides a lightweight dashboard that watches your running Claude Code windows, displays their status in real time, and notifies you when Claude needs your attention. No cloud. No new workflow. Just a clear view of what’s going on.

👋 Hey folks! I’m Tim, the developer of Chive. I often have 4 or 5 separate Claude Code instances running on various projects, and I'm constantly flipping between them trying to see what needs something to do, or a review of what's done, or is waiting for my OK on something. I built Chive to simply things, and make sure I always knew what was going on. Chive is a little native Mac app that quietly watches your Claude Code sessions and shows a real-time dashboard of what’s active, what’s stuck, and what’s ready for more work. No APIs, simple config, just launch it and go. It’s fully sandboxed and local, and no data leaves your machine. If you’re like me, someone running multiple Claude Code agents in parallel, I think this might save you some mental overhead. There’s a 75-minute (actual runtime, not from install! 😀) free trial built in, which should be more than enough time for you to see if it hits the right note for you. If you like it, I've added a Product Hunt exclusive discount of 20% until the end of the month. I'd love to hear what you think: feedback, suggestions, and feature requests all welcome! 🔗 https://chivecc.com

Congratulations on the launch of Chive! This looks like a fantastic tool for macOS users, especially with its focus on privacy and productivity; looking forward to seeing how it evolves.

@csacsika Thanks! It's been a delight to put together and refine, I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves too! 😀

This is honestly genius—finally a way to see all my Claude Code sessions in one spot without some messy cloud setup. Real talk, I needed this so bad lol.

@joey_zhu_seopage_ai Thanks! It was a real need for me, I’m glad I’m not the only one. 😀
