I found out about this from my Claude Status menu bar I built last time it went down! It's invisible most of the time, unless the status goes down then a yellow or red marker appears. Improvements welcome: https://github.com/titojankowski/claude-status

We’re in the phase of society where we will just build something like this ourselves using an LLM and it will be built exactly how we want it and we don’t have to worry about malicious code or forking it and hoping the owner will merge our PR… it’s sad but that’s where we are for anything the size of a menu bar that pings a URL every minute.

yeah totally! some version of "summarize what this tool does at a high level and then build my own but don't use any of the code" perhaps.
