# tabby

> tabby is a free, open-source Claude Code plugin (in beta) for macOS and Linux. It gives every Claude Code session's terminal tab an AI-written name, a calm color and a live status, and on a Mac it adds Tabby Island: a panel at the top of the screen that lists every session and shows which one needs you. It runs on the user's machine: no servers, no telemetry, no accounts.

Install by pasting this into Claude Code: Install tabby for me: run `curl -fsSL https://claude-tabby.vercel.app/install.md` and follow it. Or in a terminal: `curl -fsSL https://claude-tabby.vercel.app/install | bash`. `tabby uninstall` reverts every change.

What leaves the machine: only the tab-naming request (the session's last few prompts, a short excerpt of Claude's last reply and the project folder's name), sent to Claude Haiku through the user's own Claude Code login; `/tab namer heuristic` turns that off. An update check asks github.com for the latest release.
