 "title": "Approve Claude Code permissions from the notch",
 "page_title": "How to approve Claude Code permissions from the notch with Coucou",
 "summary": "Watch Claude Code sessions in the Mac notch and allow or deny its permission requests without switching windows.",
 "who": "A developer running Claude Code on a Mac who keeps losing focus waiting for permission prompts in the terminal.",
 "problem": "Claude Code pauses on each permission request, and the developer has to find the right terminal window to answer it.",
 "outcome": "Permission requests appear in the notch with Allow, Deny and Always buttons, and the session keeps moving after one click.",
 "steps": [
  "Download and open the Coucou Mac app from the releases page linked in the README.",
  "Connect Claude Code to Coucou using the hook setup described in docs/AGENTS.md.",
  "Start a Claude Code session on a task that needs file edits or shell commands.",
  "When a permission request appears in the notch, click Allow, Deny or Always.",
  "If a question needs more detail, choose Reply in terminal to fall back to the CLI."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the Louis-CFM/coucou repo, follow docs/AGENTS.md to connect Claude Code on <target machine> to the Coucou notch app. Expected output: a permission request from a Claude Code session appears in the notch with Allow, Deny and Always buttons. Verify by triggering a request that needs a file edit and confirming the buttons respond.",

  "A Mac, since the notch app and most features are macOS only",
  "Download the Coucou app from the releases page linked in the README",
  "An AI coding agent such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Gemini CLI",
  "Your own API keys for any cloud provider you plan to use, stored in the macOS Keychain",
