Running several Claude Code sessions? Bellpip shows each one in your MacBook notch: working, waiting, needs you, done. Pip, a little bronze bell, rings when a session needs you, with a softer chime when a long task is done, and lowers your music for the half second it plays. Click a row to jump to that exact terminal tab in Terminal, VS Code or Cursor. Native Swift, no account. Free for 7 days of use, then $9.99 once.
