Quick start

Terminal window
npx attnbox # start the daemon + web inbox at http://127.0.0.1:4820
npx attnbox ls # one-shot list in your terminal

That’s it. Local sessions from Claude Code (~/.claude), Codex CLI (~/.codex) and Gemini CLI (~/.gemini) are discovered automatically, read-only.

Cloud collectors activate only when their keys are present:

Terminal window
DEVIN_API_KEY=... npx attnbox # Devin sessions (blocked => waiting on you)
GITHUB_TOKEN=... npx attnbox # open PRs where your review is requested

Use ATTNBOX_GITHUB_TOKEN if you want a token dedicated to attnbox.

Open the inbox in your mobile browser (e.g. via Tailscale or any tunnel to your machine) and use “Add to Home Screen” — attnbox is a PWA. Tap the bell to get a notification the moment an agent starts waiting on you.

attnbox --port <n> # default 4820 (env ATTNBOX_PORT)
attnbox hooks # print authoritative-mode config snippets
attnbox --help
