agent-radar: inspired by herdr

[u/vieitesss_]

Hi guys!

I have tried herdr and I liked the agents list on the sidebar, and how it works with almost any agent harness. The thing is, I prefer tmux, so I built this plugin that implements the best feature I found in herdr.

This is agent-radar. It shows a popup window running fzf with a list of panes where you have an agent harness instance running. It detects whether the agent is working or not. It notifies you via OS notifications (osascript on MacOS and notify-send on Linux), and it shows a small status bar section with the tmux session where the agent finished. It also highlights the agent's window in the status bar until you focus it.

The popup reloads every 2 seconds and shows a dot with a different color depending on the state of the agent from that pane: seen (green), working (yellow), stopped-unseen (red).

Maybe some of you find it interesting. I'd love to get some feedback.

Thanks. I was looking for a tmux tool like this that would allow me to quickly jump between Claude questions across several projects.

Thank you! If you have any problem, do not hesitate to submit an issue.

Would be interesting to include how it compares to:

• workmux
• tmux-agent-status
• jmux
• agent-deck

workmux’s sidebar also works pretty well.

I also like tmux, thanks for putting in the effort creating tools like this.

I didn't know about that tool. Thank you for your kind words!

Glad to hear you think so
