Automater
Automater is a system tray utility for developers who use several AI coding tools. It reads the session files that 41 tools already write, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Antigravity, Grok, Kimi and Muse Code, across 45 formats, and puts them into one local, searchable library. It flags the moment an agent is waiting on you and tracks usage across 9 providers. Everything stays local, and the free version needs no account; PRO adds more features in the same app. It runs on Windows, macOS (Apple silicon) and Linux. It is most valuable if you juggle multiple agents; single-tool users will get less out of it.
