Agent Glance FAQs

Question 1

What is Agent Glance?

Accepted Answer

Agent Glance is a developer tool that provides a shared, on-screen WebView HUD (Heads-Up Display) for AI agents. It enables real-time visual feedback and interaction across multiple AI agent sessions.

Question 2

What are the core features of Agent Glance?

Accepted Answer

Key features include a shared WebView HUD across multiple AI agent sessions, specific tools for agents to `write`, `read`, `edit`, and `hide` HUD content, a macOS menu-bar status item for control, and an efficient singleton daemon architecture.

Question 3

Which operating systems does Agent Glance support?

Accepted Answer

Currently, Agent Glance is exclusively supported on macOS, as the HUD and menu-bar status item are macOS-only. Node.js 18+ is also required for installation and operation.

Question 4

How does Agent Glance handle multiple AI agent sessions?

Accepted Answer

It utilizes a singleton daemon architecture. Multiple AI agent clients (e.g., Claude Code, Codex) connect to a single, long-running daemon process, allowing them to share and update the same on-screen HUD efficiently.

Question 5

Can AI agents programmatically interact with the HUD content?

Accepted Answer

Yes, AI agents can use dedicated tools such as `write_glance` to replace content, `read_glance` to fetch the current buffer, `edit_glance` to apply text patches, and `hide_glance` to control the HUD's visibility.
