AgentMicro brings parallel Codex task supervision to macOS

AgentMicro is a local-first macOS menu-bar utility designed for supervising parallel Codex Desktop and CLI tasks in real time. Operating entirely on local metadata, it displays essential task state and elapsed time for single-click navigation without uploading prompts or code.

// ANALYSIS

Monitoring concurrent local AI coding agents directly in the menu bar solves context-switching chaos without compromising privacy.

–Lightweight menu-bar presence gives instant visibility into parallel agent status and completion states.
–One-click navigation directly opens matching Codex Desktop tasks for seamless context restoration.
–Local-first architecture guarantees zero telemetry or prompt uploading for strict data security.
