From harbar
Build and install the Harbar menu bar app (native macOS app + login agent), set up clickable notifications, and wire Codex hooks. Run this after installing the harbar plugin — the Claude hooks are already active via the plugin, this finishes the native side.

The harbar plugin already registered the Claude Code hooks (they're active for every session). This step finishes the parts a plugin can't do: the native menu bar app, login persistence, clickable notifications, and Codex (which isn't a Claude Code plugin).
Run the bundled installer. It builds Harbar.app, loads the launch-at-login agent, installs
terminal-notifier, copies the helper scripts to ~/.harbar, and merges the Codex hooks — and it
skips the Claude hooks (the plugin already provides them, so there are no duplicates).
$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT isn't always exported into a tool shell, so resolve the plugin root with a
fallback to the install cache before running it:
ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(ls -d ~/.claude/plugins/cache/harbar/harbar/*/ 2>/dev/null | sort -V | tail -1)}"
HARBAR_SKIP_CLAUDE_HOOKS=1 bash "${ROOT%/}/install.sh"
After it finishes, tell the user:
/hooks, and trust the harbar hooks — Codex silently ignores
untrusted user hooks, so Codex sessions won't appear until you do. (Claude needs no trust step.)◆ = claude, ☁ = codex). If it's hidden behind a
notch, free up menu bar space or use a manager like Ice.To remove everything later: bash "${ROOT%/}/uninstall.sh" (then /plugin uninstall harbar@harbar for the Claude hooks).
