## 概览

NapCat is a free macOS utility that lives in the MacBook notch and surfaces what your AI coding agents are doing. It tracks Claude Code and Codex sessions, shows live status, jumps you back to the exact task, previews permission requests, and keeps long runs alive behind a private nap screen.

## 定价与套餐

NapCat is completely free. There is no account, license key, trial clock, or paid tier, and the download includes every feature.

## 关键功能与能力

- **Live agent status in the notch:** See at a glance which of your AI coding sessions are working, which need you, and which finished, with stable identities across CLI and desktop threads.
- **Exact session return:** Click a row in the notch to jump back to the precise Claude Code or Codex session and thread, instead of hunting through terminals and windows.
- **Claude Code permissions and input forms:** Review permission requests and structured MCP elicitation forms from the notch; simple choices resolve inline while typed or secret fields open a native form.
- **Screen naps and keep-awake:** Cover your displays with a private nap screen while builds and downloads continue in the background, with keep-awake holding off sleep and the lock timer.
- **Local activity history:** A private contribution-style map on your Mac records daily agent time, session, prompt, and completed-work totals, with configurable history retention.

## 主要用例

- **Running several coding agents at once (Software developers):** Keep one agent building while another waits on your approval. NapCat shows which session needs attention and returns you straight to that exact task.
- **Approving permissions without losing flow (Claude Code power users):** Answer permission prompts and MCP input forms from the notch, and only jump into a terminal when a typed or secret value is genuinely required.
- **Naps that do not stop the work (Long-running build and test workflows):** Cover the screen when you step away while compiles, downloads, and agents keep running behind keep-awake protection.
- **Notch-based focus sessions (Focus-conscious makers):** Start a 25- or 50-minute focus timer that survives app relaunches, with quiet hours and per-event sound controls so the island only speaks when it matters.

## 优势

- Completely free with no account, license key, or upsell
- Local-first: prompts, responses, and project paths stay on the machine
- Exact session return saves real time when many agents run at once
- Handles Claude Code permission prompts and MCP input forms in the notch
- Nap screen plus keep-awake keeps long runs going without display sleep

## 局限

- Requires macOS 13 or later on Apple Silicon
- Notch-oriented UI is less compelling on Macs without a physical notch
- Rich context is deepest for Claude Code and Codex; other CLIs only show process-level status

## 常见问题

### Does work continue while the nap screen is showing?
Yes. The nap screen is an overlay across your displays, not system sleep. Builds, agents, and downloads keep running, and keep-awake prevents display sleep, system sleep, and the lock timer.

### Is my code or terminal sent to a server?
No. Monitoring and the Activity view stay on your Mac. Prompts, responses, project names, and paths are never sent to NapCat. An optional Claude usage meter talks directly to Anthropic using Claude Code's existing login.

### Which agents does NapCat support?
Claude Code and Codex get the richest session context, including exact task return. NapCat also recognizes many other local agent CLIs at process level, such as Gemini CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, Aider, and Qwen Code.

### Does it track Codex Desktop threads too?
Yes. Clicking a Codex Desktop session opens that specific Codex thread, and NapCat follows Codex CLI processes as well.

### Can NapCat answer Claude Code permission prompts from the notch?
You can answer permission prompts and structured MCP input forms surfaced through Claude Code's Elicitation hook. Simple choices stay in the notch; typed or secret fields open a native form after you click.

### Is there a paid version?
No. There is no license check, no trial clock, no account, and no paid tier. Every feature is included in the download.

### NapCat 的月流量和增长趋势如何？
NapCat 目前每月获得 4224 访问量，月度环比流量变化为 -852（增长率 -16.8%）。其主要来源市场是美国（66.3% 份额），包括每月 1396 次直接访问和每月 — 次自然搜索访问。
