Codex Terminal Companion

See which Codex conversations are working, finished, or interrupted, right in VS Code.

Codex terminals with background spinners, conversation names, and an unread completion counter

Feature	What you get
Live activity	Colored status indicators and background terminal spinners.
Automatic names	Name the selected terminal after its Codex conversation.
Completion alerts (optional)	A notification when a turn finishes, plus an unread counter.

Activity and automatic names are on by default. Completion alerts are off by default. Adjust them independently with Codex Terminal Companion: Open Settings.

Automatic detection supports macOS and Linux; Windows supports manual binding. For Remote SSH, install the extension on the server. Native spinners need a supported VS Code version and a terminal list wide enough to show them.
