Monitor and approve coding-agent sessions with Coucou
Watch Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, and other agent sessions from a desktop companion, then answer permission prompts, jump to terminals, and keep agent work visible without reopening each CLI.

Use Coucou when an operator needs a lightweight desktop control surface for local coding-agent sessions. Coucou shows active Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, and custom hook-tagged agents, surfaces what they read, edit, and run, and lets the user respond to permission or question prompts without hunting through terminals.
What this skill actually does
Invoke this instead of using each agent product normally when the task is supervision: keep several agent sessions visible, approve or deny pending requests, jump back to the right terminal, and maintain a local human-in-the-loop control point. The scope boundary is session monitoring and approval for desktop coding agents. It is not a generic desktop companion, chat client, or model SDK.
Inputs and prerequisites: Coucou desktop app, supported coding-agent CLI such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or Antigravity, and optional hook payload tagging for custom agents.
Setup notes: Download the latest Coucou release from https://github.com/Louis-CFM/coucou/releases. On macOS, unzip Coucou.zip and move Coucou.app to /Applications. On Linux, use the release AppImage, .deb, or .rpm packages.
Source and verification boundary: use https://louis-cfm.github.io/coucou/ as the canonical reference before running the workflow; keep commands, API calls, CLI usage, and generated outputs reviewable against that upstream source.
Framework fit: publish this as a Multi-Framework workflow only when the operator can invoke the documented toolchain directly, rather than treating the upstream project as a generic product listing.
