Dev shows e-ink desk display tracking 20 Codex agent threads in real time
Dimillian · x · 2026-11-12
Developer Dimillian shared his agent workstation: an e-ink desk device showing a live "Codex inbox" with 20 threads, plus usage stats — 1.2B tokens today, 3.6B over 7 days, 207.9B total, and a 226-day streak.
Each card lists agent status (IDLE/RUNNING), task name, agent type, and a progress snippet — from investigating feedback to verifying an iPad sidebar fix to driving Blender to recreate a 3D scene. Putting background agent state on an always-on desk display is a neat pattern for managing many parallel coding agents.
