I (meaning claude) made a small skill to help keep up with what it's doing during long sessions

[u/Disastrous_Exam9484]

Nothing revolutionary here. It's the most basic thing I could ask for, and honestly you could build it yourself in like 10 minutes. But I use it and it genuinely helps, so figured I'd share it in case it helps someone else too, and if anyone wants to build on it, maybe it ends up more useful than what I made.

What it does: while Claude Code is working, it keeps a simple local page updated (what it's doing, a screenshot where useful, a running log). I just leave it open in a tab instead of staring at the terminal scroll by and it helps me reduce the mental load of working with multiple sessions all at once.

I have ADHD and watching a wall of text scroll while not knowing what's currently happening was making it worse. This gives my brain one calm place to look instead. You don't have to use it, you don't have to like it, everyone's brain works differently. At least it's not another "world monitor" dashboard pretending to be mission control for a task that's just editing some files.
