Summary

Builds the rest of the canvas redesign on top of #95, which this PR is stacked on. Once #95 merges, GitHub retargets this PR to main.

  • Profile identity. Each profile's tile is filled with its colour and shows its initial or a chosen symbol in white. New profiles get a stable colour from their name (an FNV-1a hash, so it never shifts between launches or when profiles are added), and default is graphite. The palette (blue, indigo, purple, pink, teal, green, brown, graphite) leaves out red, orange and yellow, which mean low quota.
  • Appearance editor. Appearance… in a profile's ⋯ menu swaps the list for an editor in the same popover: a preview with the profile's CODEX_HOME path from the documented mapping (nothing is read), eight colour swatches and twelve symbols. Choices apply at once and persist in UserDefaults. Reset restores the automatic look; Done, Return or Escape goes back to the list. I used the same popover rather than a second one so dismissal and keyboard focus stay with the menu.
  • Search tags. A search result listed without its profile row shows a small square of the profile's colour beside its name.
  • Quota in menu bar. An opt-in gear-menu toggle, off by default, shows the lowest remaining share across profiles beside the template icon (for example 7%), healthy windows included. The tooltip and VoiceOver label name that profile and window. While it's on, usage is read every five minutes through the same path as Low-quota alerts. It never asks for notification permission, and background reads stop only when both toggles are off.

Not in this PR: the dot for an open ChatGPT window, which needs process detection.

List Appearance editor
Profiles with coloured tiles and symbols Choosing a profile's colour and symbol

Testing

  • make check passes on this branch, including ShellCheck and the native unit, interaction and preview suites. The preview suite now also renders the editor.
  • New checks cover:
    • automatic colours, including graphite for default and stability across launches;
    • the editor's eight colours and twelve symbols, with the current choices marked;
    • choices applying in place and persisting, Escape, Reset and Done;
    • the colour square on search tags;
    • the lowest figure, its tooltip and VoiceOver line;
    • the figure's preference, and background reads that follow the figure without any permission prompt.
  • Not verified: the figure drawn in the real menu bar, and the editor in a live popover. The status-item drawing runs only in the app, not in tests, so both need a manual check on macOS.

Scope and compatibility

  • Affected scope: the macOS menu-bar companion only. CLI, app default and named Desktop launches are unchanged.
  • Compatibility impact: profile tiles are now coloured by default. Two new UserDefaults keys are added, profileAppearance and menuBarQuotaFigure. The figure is off by default.

Checklist

  • I ran make check; if the environment lacks ShellCheck, I ran
    make test and documented the missing lint result instead.
  • I did not add code that reads, copies, prints, parses, uploads, compares,
    or migrates auth tokens or ChatGPT cookies.
  • Desktop changes preserve the stock app default session and use the
    original signed app bundle.
  • I did not claim that CLI and Desktop account equality can be inspected or verified.
  • I updated documentation for user-facing behavior changes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Customize each profile’s appearance with one of eight colours and twelve symbols, or restore its automatic appearance. Profiles receive stable automatic colours and initials; the default profile uses graphite. Changes apply immediately.
    • Optionally show the lowest remaining Codex quota beside the menu-bar icon. This setting is off by default; while enabled, usage refreshes about every five minutes. Low-quota alerts remain a separate setting.
  • Documentation
    • Updated the macOS app guides and screenshots with details about profile appearance customization and the quota display.

Rebuild the menu-bar popover around profiles, following the canvas
redesign.

- Each profile leads a group and its workspaces sit beneath it, pinned
  first and then by last launch; this replaces the profile filter.
  Workspaces whose profile is missing follow the groups and name it.
- The header is search and the gear. Typing selects the first match so
  Return's target is visible, and the footer names what Return and
  Command-Return open.
- Clicking a row opens it. Command-Return and Command-click open the
  other destination; the gear menu's "Return opens in" replaces the
  ChatGPT/Terminal control and keeps the saved preference.
- Rows drop their Open buttons. The actions button shows with the hover
  or selection plate and stays visible on rows that need repair, which
  also offer Locate…. Right-click shows the same actions.
- Each profile shows its tightest Codex window as a figure and a ring.
  Low and critical use darker orange and red in light mode so the
  figure keeps 4.5:1 contrast; the profile's actions list every window
  with its reset time.
- The popover is 360 points wide; previews render at 2x on any display.

Tests cover nesting and alignment, search selection, Command-Return,
the Return destination, right-click actions, the usage lines and quota
colours in both appearances. DESIGN.md, the READMEs, the site copy,
llms.txt and the previews are updated.

The footer decided whether to show the Return and Command-Return hints
by comparing the status message with two literals that the store also
set. Rewording either side would have left the footer stuck on a stale
message without any error.

The store now keeps its resting prompts in one place and exposes
hasStatusNews, which the footer uses. A store test covers the resting
prompt and a reported outcome.

Build the rest of the canvas redesign on top of the grouped menu.

- Each profile has a colour and symbol. New profiles get a stable
  colour from an FNV-1a hash of their name, with default in graphite,
  and show their initial. The palette leaves out red, orange and
  yellow, which mean low quota; white symbols keep 4.5:1 contrast.
- Appearance… in a profile's actions replaces the list with an editor:
  a preview with the profile's CODEX_HOME path, eight colour swatches
  and twelve symbols. Choices apply at once and persist in
  UserDefaults; Reset restores the automatic look, and Done, Return or
  Escape returns. The chosen swatch gains a ring and every choice
  reports its state to accessibility clients.
- A search result listed without its profile row shows a square of the
  profile's colour beside its name.
- Quota in menu bar, an opt-in gear-menu toggle, shows the lowest
  remaining share across profiles beside the template icon. The
  tooltip and VoiceOver label name that window. While it is on, usage
  is read every five minutes through the same path as alerts, with no
  notification permission; background reads stop only when both are
  off.

Tests cover automatic and chosen appearance, the editor and its
persistence, the tag colour, the lowest figure and its tooltip, and
background reads that follow the figure. The previews, a new editor
preview, DESIGN.md, the READMEs, the site alt text and llms.txt are
updated.

Walkthrough

The macOS menu now supports per-profile colors and symbols through an editor. An optional setting displays the lowest remaining quota beside the menu-bar icon. Background refresh, tests, previews, and documentation also change.

Changes: macOS menu updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile appearance data and persistence
macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/WorkspaceModels.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/WorkspaceStore.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/DESIGN.md
ProfileAppearance defines automatic colors and symbols. WorkspaceStore persists overrides and uses automatic values when saved values are missing or invalid.
Appearance editor and profile rendering
macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/WorkspaceMenuView.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Previews/RenderPreview.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Tests/CodexProfilesMenuTests/MenuInteractionTests.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Tests/CodexProfilesMenuTests/TestMain.swift, macos/README.md, README.md, CHANGELOG.md, docs/*, test/macos/menu-app-test.sh
Profile rows and ungrouped workspace rows use profile appearances. The editor applies color and symbol selections immediately and supports reset, Done, and Escape. Tests and preview instructions cover these changes.
Quota figure and refresh flow
macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/QuotaAlerts.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/CodexProfilesMenuApp.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/WorkspaceMenuView.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Sources/CodexProfilesMenu/WorkspaceStore.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Tests/CodexProfilesMenuTests/QuotaAlertTests.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Tests/CodexProfilesMenuTests/MenuInteractionTests.swift, macos/CodexProfilesMenu/Tests/CodexProfilesMenuTests/UsageTests.swift, macos/README.md, README.md, CHANGELOG.md, docs/llms.txt
The optional figure shows the lowest remaining quota window, including healthy windows. Background usage refresh continues while either the figure or alerts are enabled. The menu-bar item updates its figure, tooltip, and accessibility label when enabled.

The profile's actions listed each window with its reset time, except a
window whose reset had already passed, which said only "awaiting a
fresh reading". It now reads "5h: reset at 14:20 · awaiting a fresh
reading", worded in the past like the tooltip. An interaction test
covers it.

- Darken green and graphite slightly so white symbols keep the 4.5:1
  contrast the code and docs claim (green was 4.40:1, graphite 4.52:1;
  now 4.67:1 and 4.72:1). A unit test computes the contrast of every
  colour so the claim stays true.
- A symbol choice whose SF Symbol is missing on this Mac shows the
  profile's initial instead of a blank button.
- Background passes list profiles each time, so profiles created or
  removed outside the app join or leave the figure and alerts while the
  menu stays closed. They refresh quietly and leave the footer's status
  message alone; a foreground refresh that joins one still reports. The
  usage fixture answers profile listings from files without counting
  them as usage reads, and a test covers a profile joining.

Previews are re-rendered with the adjusted colours.

Base automatically changed from claude/menu-grouped-profiles to main October 28, 2026 07:11
main is #95's final tree squashed (ff32520), which this branch already
contains as 6db4cd9, so the merge keeps this branch's tree unchanged.

Bring in the site redesign (#97). Its menu bar section replaced the one
this branch had edited, so the new section stays as #97 wrote it, with
its screenshot refreshed to this branch's dark preview (same layout, so
the numbered pins still line up) and its description noting each
profile's colour.

Also clarify in DESIGN.md and the macOS guide that background passes
list profiles quietly only after the first profile load.
