- Answer questions in one click — when an agent asks you to choose, pick the option right in the panel
- Precise jump-back — click a notification and land on the exact terminal tab, split pane, or IDE window that asked
- Plan review — read full Markdown plans and send feedback before an agent starts editing
- Usage limits — see subscription quota windows per provider before you hit the wall
- SSH Remote — monitor agents running on remote servers from your Mac's notch
- Zero config — detected CLIs are set up automatically on first launch
- Native Swift — under 50 MB RAM, near-zero idle CPU, no Electron; everything stays on your machine
