Keep up with your AI coding agents when you step away from your Mac. Agent HUD brings the quotas, token usage and session activity collected on your Macs to iPhone and Apple Watch. QUOTAS AND TOKEN USAGE Check quotas and reset times for Claude, Codex, Antigravity, Cursor and Grok. See available Codex resets, DeepSeek balances and estimated costs. Explore token usage over 5 hours, 24 hours or 7 days, compare models, and view input, output and cache-read tokens in charts and activity heatmaps. SESSIONS AND CONVERSATIONS See which sessions are running across your Macs. Browse models, token totals and recent activity, and read recent conversations shared from Claude Code, Codex, Grok CLI, Grok Bot and Antigravity. Open Codex subagent tasks and their conversations from the parent conversation. View all your Macs together or focus on one. On iPhone Duo, use either display and continue with the same session when you fold the phone. SPEAK, SEND AND FOLLOW UP Tell Codex or Claude Code what to do from Apple Watch. Check your message, choose a project offered by your Mac and send. Start a session, follow its progress, read the reply and continue the conversation from your wrist. You can also review and send these messages on iPhone. WIDGETS, LIVE ACTIVITIES AND ALERTS Add quota, balance or token widgets to your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Check quota rings, token charts and recent sessions on Apple Watch.
