Choose Codex or Claude, inspect a saved-session preview and request opening in its provider. Confirm only after checking the destination yourself, or browse History to find another conversation.

Monitoring reads local activity without an Ocelin account or API key. Optional Ask sends your question and a compact, secret-scanned snapshot through Claude Code to its configured model service.
Inferred activity is labelled. Missing allowance readings stay unavailable, and a quiet session is not treated as a successful finish.
The optional Windows taskbar widget shows the animated pet, running sessions and remaining Codex and Claude allowance. Click it to open the session panel.
Taskbar setupTry it locally
Ocelin is a personal open-source project, still in preview. Setup instructions, changes and issue reports live on GitHub.
I originally published this project as clawdeck-panel on npm. It has since evolved into Ocelin, with its current source at m-sanchez/ocelin. The npm registry still carries the earlier release under the original package name.
This is a separate project from the Rails/OpenClaw application also called Clawdeck.
Subscription allowances use existing local Codex and Claude Code sign-ins, which may differ from accounts in other apps. Credentials stay in the background process. Claude’s usage endpoint is not a stable public API.
The optional inside-taskbar integration needs a separate host and uses private Windows APIs. WSL and mirrored remote sessions support read-only previews; reopen them on their source host. Direct remote transport and in-panel agent approvals are outside this preview.
The first-return guide records your confirmation after an open request. Its automated checks use synthetic sessions and simulated dispatch; they do not establish that the provider rendered the intended conversation.
