Community developer releases Claude Code live agent activity map
AI summary
Developer alexeyw released lot-map, a free MIT-licensed Claude Code mod that visualizes agent activity in a live pane beside the chat. The developer says it maps model requests, tool calls, hooks, errors, context-window use, and subagent activity while displaying names rather than content and making no network requests. The mod was built with Opus 5.5 and later reworked with Fable 5.2, and has so far been tested only on macOS.
In-depth insight
Lot-map provides a concrete interface for inspecting Claude Code agent activity, although its capabilities and lack of network requests are currently supported only by the developer's own description.
| I got tired of reading a scrolling list of tool calls, so I had Claude Code build a mod that shows the work as a map in a pane beside the chat. The agent sits in the centre, with ten stations around it: you, the model, memory, files, shell, network, browser, subagents, skills and hooks. Every model request, tool call and hook sends a pulse from the centre to its station and back, and errors turn red. Spokes get thicker with use, a ring around the centre fills with the context window, and subagents circle their station while they run. It makes no network requests and shows names only, never content. Opus 5.5 wrote the first version, and Fable 5.2 reworked it the next day.
