About BlackFlare

BlackFlare, a menu bar app for Claude Code and Codex. Keep your Mac awake, even lid closed. Get notified when tasks finish, switch defaults, track usage. BlackFlare keeps your Mac awake while Claude or Codex runs, even with the lid closed, and pings you the moment a task finishes or needs you, on your Mac, Telegram, or Slack. Tune your defaults and track your usage right from the menu bar. Your Mac dozes off, or you close the lid, and the whole run stalls halfway.
