Coding agent tracking does not properly recognize active state

I love the new feature that Seam tracks coding agent states & usage.

The usage tracking works very well for both Claude Code & Codex, but there’s an issue with the “is working” state - it usually doesn’t appear at all for me when using Claude Code, and only very rarely when using Codex.

And the behaviour is unclear when using multiple Claude Code sessions simultaneously - what’s the intended behaviour here?

Now, it sometimes just seemingly randomly updates to show either Codex or Claude for a second, then switches back to Claude (but in idle state). The “is working” state is never shown longer than a second in general for me.

Thanks in advance!

    I'm aware of that and unfortunately that's not something I have a lot of control over because basically what it does is that each time an agent has finished it fires a notification and if you have multiple sessions those notifications can come in parallel.

    The alert system is a feature you can turn off anyway in the settings.

    Hope that helps!

      Thanks for the fast reply! I looked at settings again, but I had notifications off - I guess what didn’t work then was the “auto-switching” e.g. when opening Codex (foreground Mac app) while Claude sessions are running, it still shows “Claude Code”-view in Seam. 🤔
