About DevBar

DevBar is a small pill docked to the top of your screen that expands into a card
when you hover it, and disappears when you don't need it. It shows the handful of
things a developer checks constantly: listening ports with one-click kill, clipboard
history, Docker containers, git status for watched repos, build freshness, what is
playing, and which Claude Code sessions are working or waiting on you. Jarvis, the
voice module, answers out loud and can act on your machine, asking first before
anything destructive.
Nothing polls while the bar is collapsed, including the blur, so it measures 0.0% CPU
at idle. No accounts, no telemetry.
