WaitBiteDone notifications
Skip the guessing. Short runs stay quiet, and so does the window you're already looking at.
Your agent is thinking.You don't have to doomscroll.
WaitBite turns the minutes your AI coding agent runs into a quick fact, a 60-second game, or a flashcard, and taps you the moment it's done.

- Claude Code

How it works
Install
Open the app. It lives in your menu bar.
Connect your agent
One click adds a small hook. Your other settings stay as they are, and removing it takes one click too.
Get a bite while it works, get pinged when it's done
A card appears after a couple of seconds. When the agent stops, you get a notification that brings you back to the right window.
What you get
Learn while you wait
Your own flashcards from CSV or Anki, short code quizzes, and vocabulary for the language you're learning.
Weekly wait stats
See how long you wait per agent, and share a card if the number is too good to keep. It all stays on your Mac.
Mini games
A memory game for the longer runs. WaitBite learns how long your agent usually takes and picks what fits.
We never store or send your prompts or your code.
Agent hooks hand our helper a blob that can include your prompt. It takes the session ID, drops the rest, and tells the app on your own Mac that the agent started or finished.
- Runs locally
- Only started and finished events
- No account required
- Delete all your data in one click
What data leaves your Mac?
Nothing from your agent, ever. These are the only requests the app makes.
| What | What it contains | When |
|---|---|---|
| Sponsor feed | A plain request for one public file. Like any web request, it reveals your IP address to the host. We don't build profiles from it. | Once a day. Off with sponsor cards off, or on Pro. |
| Sponsor counts | Views and clicks per campaign, with a random ID that changes daily. | Once a day. Off with sponsor cards off, or on Pro. |
| License check | Your license key and activation ID, sent to Lemon Squeezy. | About once a day. Pro only. |
| Content updates | A request for new cards. No interests or history. | Off by default. You opt in. |
| Account | Your email and password, sent to Firebase Auth. | Only if you create an account. It's optional. |
| Your prompts, code, file paths, transcripts | Never sent. | Never. |

Questions
Does it slow my machine?
The hook runs for a moment on each agent event and gives up after half a second if anything goes wrong, so your agent never waits on it. Between events the app sits idle in the menu bar.
Does it read my code?
No. WaitBite never opens your files. Agents do pass hooks a blob that can include your prompt. The helper reads the session ID from it in memory, then discards the rest. Nothing is stored, and only the event goes to the app on your own Mac.
Which agents are supported?
Cursor and Claude Code today. Codex and Windsurf are next.
Windows or Linux?
Mac only for now. Windows is next, and the waitlist above is how you'll hear about it. There's no Linux date yet.
How do sponsored cards work?
Developer-tool companies pay to show a short card, always labeled Sponsored. You see at most three a day and one per sponsor. Your Mac picks them from your interests and the agent you use, so no profile of you exists on a server. Turn them off anytime, or go Pro to never see them.
