I usually have a few Claude sessions going at once. Whenever I stepped away to water the plants or make lunch, I'd come back to a session that had been waiting the whole time for an answer.
So I made Burrow, a little buddy who lives in my notch. Burrow reacts to what my sessions are doing and taps me when one needs me. Nobody gets ghosted anymore, and I've gotten kind of attached to checking in on Burrow.
I hope Burrow and the crew make your days a little easier, the way they've made mine.
No. The buddy, your next meeting, your music and desk cards like Timer, Note and Shelf all work on their own. Claude Code and Codex alerts are the headline, and they start once you connect one in Settings.
Does it work on Macs without a notch?
Yes. Any Mac on macOS 14 or later works. MacBooks with a notch get Burrow right in it. On other Macs, Burrow draws its own little notch at the top of your main screen.
Do my requests leave my Mac?
No. Claude Code and Codex talk to Burrow on your own Mac, and the answer goes straight back to them. The app has no tracking. It goes online only to check for updates and for services you connect, like GitHub and Spotify.
Does Burrow see sessions on my other computers?
No. Burrow shows the Claude Code and Codex sessions running on this Mac. Sessions on another computer or in the cloud aren't visible to it.
What if I'm away when a request comes in?
Nothing gets lost. The session stays marked in the notch, so you see what needs you when you're back. Running several sessions? Each request waits its turn, in the order they came in.
Can I answer Claude's questions?
Yes, with Claude Code. When Claude asks you to pick an option, you pick it in the notch. Codex questions are answered in Codex.
Does it work with the Claude app?
Yes. Claude Code in Terminal or an editor, and Codex, ask you in the notch: Allow, Deny or Open. Sessions inside the Claude desktop app show up too, so you can see when they're working, waiting or done. When one needs permission, the card says Waiting on you with Open, and you answer in the Claude app.
What cards are there?
Today, Note, Timer, Teleprompter, Shelf, Quick Apps, GitHub, Mac Stats, Controls and Tools.
Can I change where my buddy hangs out?
Yes. On the Desk, tap Buddy & room and pick a room: Open sky, Cozy corner, Porch, Plain black, Beach, Café or Rooftop. The light follows your clock.
Why do I have to open a request before I can Allow it?
When a tool from a connected service asks (an MCP tool, if you know the term), the card says tool: name and shows the full request. Choose Show request, read it, then Allow. That way you only approve what you've read.
Can I hide Burrow quickly?
Yes. Press ⌥⌘B (Option-Command-B) and Burrow tucks away completely, which is handy for meetings and screen sharing. Press it again, or click the Show Burrow pill at the notch, to bring it back. It also hides in full screen unless you're needed, and it follows Reduce Motion.
What does Burrow ask permission for?
Each one has a single job. Calendar shows your next meeting and its Join button. Music and Spotify show what's playing. Accessibility lets Snap move windows and Screen Recording powers Capture and Text grab.
Is Burrow made by Anthropic or OpenAI?
No. Burrow is an indie app that works with Claude Code and Codex.
