ilha
Turning the notch, the most mocked piece of Mac hardware, into a live status readout is the kind of cheeky pragmatism I love. Rate limits are the silent killer of AI coding sessions, you're deep in a refactor and suddenly Codex stops answering. Having that number staring at you from the top of the screen changes how you pace your work.
I'd want to know whether ilha actually renders into the notch's physical black space or just mimics it with a menu bar widget, since the real notch is a hardware cutout. And I'm curious if it tracks multiple accounts or resets cleanly when your window rolls over. Those details decide whether this is a daily driver or a neat demo.
Still, the bigger point is that we're watching people build ergonomics around AI tools the same way they built plugins for editors a decade ago. Small utilities like this are the early signs of a real ecosystem forming, and I'm here for every one of them.
