The problem with `--verbose` is that it floods the terminal, making real-time debugging a headache.
Also, this isn't a wrapper—it’s a passive viewer. I built it specifically to keep the native terminal workflow intact.
It’s especially useful when you're running multiple parallel sessions. Have you ever tried digging through raw JSON logs to retroactively debug passed sessions at once, since the session is already shut down? It’s nearly impossible without a proper UI. This tool is for those "post-mortem" moments, not just for watching a single stream.
I don't sit there watching every session either—that's definitely not the point.
It's more like standard observability. You don't watch your server logs all day, but when an error spikes, you need deep tracing to find out why.
I use this when the agent gets stuck on a simple task or the context window fills up way faster than expected. The tool lets me "drill down" into the tool outputs and execution tree to see exactly where the bad loop started.
If you're running multiple parallel sessions across different terminal tabs, trying to grep through raw logs to find a specific failure is a massive productivity sink. This is for when things go sideways and you need to solve it in seconds, not for babysitting every keystroke.
To be clear, I'm not saying they solve high-level software design.
The goal is to prevent the agent from getting derailed by basic noise. Forcing it to deal with strict TS errors, dead code (Knip), or broken formatting in the feedback loop keeps the context clean.
It’s less about architecting the app and more about giving the agent immediate stderr signals so it stays on the rails.
