Agent Clan is a desktop workspace that turns your Claude Code and Codex agents into a 3D team living right on your screen. Instead of working with agents as lines of text, you build an agent army on your desk — a crew of characters you pick, talk to and direct with your hands. It is made for people who already use Claude Code or Codex and want to work with those agents their own way: choose an agent, tell it what to do, and see what comes back without reaching for the keyboard. Agent Clan is an independent desktop application for Mac and Windows, powered by your own AI accounts. The product is framed around a simple frustration: picking an agent, giving it a task and reading the result should not mean reaching for the keyboard, copying and pasting, or switching between apps. Handing something over should not require a detour through a clipboard, and answering an agent's permission request should not pull you out of what you are doing. Agent Clan's answer is to keep your crew over every app, waiting in the corner as little heads, so you always know who is busy, who is done and who needs you. Because gestures work in front of any app, not only inside Agent Clan, the interaction follows you wherever you are working. The first control layer is gesture. Open your hand, then make a fist and your agents appear. Pinch and pull toward an agent to choose it, then let go to select. The same language covers answering an agent: when an agent asks for permission, you pull right to allow or left to deny. Gestures are optional — mouse and keyboard work too — but they are the heart of the experience, letting you reach characters floating over any application rather than hunting for the right window. The second control layer is voice. Choose an agent and simply talk; your words become its next task, turned into text right on your computer. Voice input needs a microphone. Agent Clan states that gesture recognition and speech-to-text run on your computer, and that it does not upload camera frames or raw recordings. The transcribed text goes to your chosen agent and is handled by that service, and agent tasks still require an internet connection. Agents wait in the corner of the screen as little heads, always on top of whatever you are working in. A ring around each head shows whether it is working, done or waiting for you, so the state of the whole crew is visible at a glance. Point at a head for its result, then allow or deny without switching apps — for example, answering “Can I run npm install?” from inside another program. You can also circle anything on your screen to hand it over to an agent. Prompts do not have to be typed at all. A picture, a file or some text can be dragged onto an agent and it becomes that agent's prompt, with no copying, no pasting and no switching apps. Structure comes from groups: put agents under a leader, pick the leader to open its group, then pull again to talk to a member, or ask a leader and its crew splits the work. This turns a large set of agents into an organized team rather than a flat list of terminals. The crew is rendered in 3D. Every agent can be given its own hair, eyes, clothes and costumes, and each terminal you open becomes one more character at a desk in the room, with the whole room typing away together. With Pro there is no limit on characters; the site illustrates the idea with 50 agents in a cabin, each in a cat costume with its own eyes and name, typing as fast as they can. Pro also unlocks mods. You tell any Claude agent in your crew what you want — sparkles when a task is done, a crown on its character, something new in the room, a small panel, a colour theme or a sound — and it writes a small mod using Agent Clan's MCP tools, looks at a picture of the result, fixes what is off, and the change appears right away with no restart. Mods stay in a Workshop folder on your computer, apart from the app, so updates do not remove them, and any of them can be turned off on the Workshop page. Codex agents cannot write mods yet. Underneath, Agent Clan is an independent desktop workspace that connects the Claude Code and Codex tools on your computer to interactive characters. You use your own agent accounts, and the original providers bill their usage; AI service fees are separate from Agent Clan itself. Gesture recognition and speech-to-text are processed locally rather than uploaded. A character can also be created from a photo by asking your own Claude Code account to suggest a character made from existing parts and colours — a step the site notes is not processed entirely on your computer. The outcomes the product points to are immediacy and awareness. You can pick an agent and give it a task without touching the keyboard, see who is busy, done or waiting in a single glance, answer a permission request in place rather than switching apps, and hand over screen content by circling it or dragging a file straight onto a character. Instead of losing your place every time an agent needs you, the crew sits over every app and comes to you. Concrete workflows follow from that. A developer running several Claude Code or Codex tasks can open terminal after terminal and watch the room work while doing something else, then allow or deny each request as it comes up. Someone reviewing material in another application can circle the thing they mean and hand it to an agent, or drag a picture, file or text block onto one. A user organizing a bigger effort can put agents under a leader and let the crew split the work. A Pro user can ask an agent to restyle the workspace or add a sound, and a user with a photo can ask Claude Code to suggest a character built from existing parts and colours. Agent Clan has a Free tier and a Pro tier, and an account is required for both. Free includes one project with up to two agents, gesture control and voice input, and 3D characters and workspaces. Pro is a one-time purchase listed at US$14 during a launch price running until Nov 30, 2026 (US$19 afterwards), includes one year of updates, and adds unlimited projects and agents, mods, and everything in Free. Pro belongs to your account and can be signed in on up to 3 computers; signing in on one more prompts the app to sign out the one used longest ago. The app runs on Mac and Windows, and defaults to mouse and keyboard if you do not want to use gestures. Agent Clan's core value proposition is stated simply on its own site: pick with your hand, ask with your voice, and keep your crew over every app so you always know who is busy, who is done and who needs you. It takes agents that normally live in terminals and turns them into a visible, reachable team you can direct without a keyboard.
NotchX is a macOS app that turns the camera notch on a MacBook into a live hub for the things you check most often: what's playing, messages, incoming calls, your next meeting, connected AirPods, the weather, and the volume and brightness you adjust throughout the day. Instead of pulling information into the middle of the screen or sending you into separate apps and settings panels, NotchX puts it around the notch itself. Closed, it keeps two small icons either side of the camera; hover, and it opens straight down and never wider than it needs to be. It is built for people who spend their day on a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro and want status and controls within a glance rather than a detour. macOS already tells you what is happening through notification banners, a large volume and brightness overlay in the centre of the display, and pop-ups from apps such as Music. NotchX starts from the notifications your Mac already shows and re-presents them in a strip of screen that is otherwise empty. The volume and brightness pop-up that normally covers the middle of your screen becomes a slim line under the notch. Checking whether your AirPods are connected no longer requires opening Bluetooth settings. Each glance becomes a smaller interruption, which matters on a laptop where screen space and attention are both limited. Music is the deepest part of NotchX. It shows the track title, the artist, play and pause, skip forward and back, and a progress bar you can drag, all beside the camera, and it works with Apple Music and Spotify. The player offers five looks — Aura, Cover Wash, Neon, Sunset and Spectrum — and thirty-five visualizers in total, seven per look. Each look has its own colours and its own animated icons beside the camera, and each song gets a different visualizer, so the notch changes character as your playlist moves on. Everything pauses with the music, so nothing keeps animating once playback stops. Messages and calls arrive from the notification banners macOS already displays. When a message comes in from Messages, Slack, Teams, WhatsApp or another supported app, the sender's name appears beside the camera together with that app's real icon; clicking it opens the message in the app itself. Calls work the same way: if FaceTime, Slack, Teams or Zoom is ringing, the caller and a ringing phone appear beside the camera, and nothing drops down over your work. You can answer or decline from there. Once you are on the call, the notch shows just your microphone state and a timer, and hovering reveals who it is and how long you have been talking — there is nothing to press. Meetings surface a few minutes ahead of time along with the icon of the app the meeting link opens in. One click joins the meeting, and a second option reminds you again in five minutes. AirPods appear beside the camera the moment they connect, with their name, so you can confirm the connection without opening Bluetooth settings. Weather is optional and off by default; turn it on with the Weather tile and, when nothing else is going on, the notch shows a live sky — sun, rain, thunder or snow — plus the temperature. Clicking it reveals today's high and low, the chance of rain and the forecast for the next five hours. Volume and brightness are handled by replacing the large macOS pop-up in the middle of the screen with a slim line under the notch: drag the line or tap the icons. Everything else is controlled from a small menu that opens when you click NotchX in the menu bar. From there you switch individual features on or off, choose a music look, and decide how much of a message the notch reveals: the full message with sender and text, the sender only with a "New message" label, or just the app icon, which is handy when you are sharing your screen. The same menu holds Open at login and Quit. NotchX works locally on your Mac and takes its information from what macOS already presents. It reads the message and call banners the system shows, which is why it asks for Accessibility access; the same permission lets it replace the volume and brightness pop-ups. Meetings ask for Calendar access instead. Music, weather and AirPods work without Accessibility permission. Everything stays on the machine: there is no account, no analytics and no message history, and nothing you read is sent anywhere. The app only goes online to check your licence, look for updates, and — if you have turned Weather on — to fetch a forecast for your approximate area. The practical benefit is that information arrives where you are already looking rather than in the middle of your work. A ringing call shows who is calling and lets you decline without a full-screen interruption; a message shows its sender without you switching apps; the next meeting is one click away; AirPods confirm they are connected; the weather is there when nothing else is happening. Because the closed state is only two small icons either side of the camera, the feature set is available without permanently giving up screen space, and because the panel opens straight down and never wider than it needs to be, it does not cover the work behind it. Typical use is a working day on a MacBook: music playing while you write, with the notch showing the track and a draggable progress bar; a Slack or Teams message sliding in with the sender's name beside the camera; a Zoom call arriving with the caller shown so you can answer or decline; the design review meeting appearing a few minutes early with a one-click join. If you share your screen often, setting messages to icon-only keeps content out of view. If you work away from a window, the Weather tile gives you the sky and the next five hours at a glance, and the slim volume line keeps adjustments out of the centre of the display. NotchX is aimed at people using MacBooks with a notch — MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models from 2021 onward — running macOS 13 Ventura or later. On a Mac without a notch it sits at the top centre of the screen instead. It is a paid app with a 14-day free trial that unlocks every feature; after that a lifetime licence costs $9.99 as a one-time payment for one Mac, including all future updates. There is no subscription and no account, and it works offline once activated. The app is signed and notarized by Apple, checkout is handled by Lemon Squeezy, and the licence key arrives by email. A licence can be moved between Macs by choosing "Deactivate this Mac" on the old machine and entering the key on the new one. Updates arrive automatically or via Check for Updates. In short, NotchX gives the notch something to do: a single, local, glanceable surface for music, messages, calls, meetings, AirPods, weather, volume and brightness, backed by a one-time $9.99 licence after a 14-day free trial, with no account, no subscription and nothing you read leaving your Mac.
