Field notes
The listed readouts connect machine-level activity to the app using the resource, including examples such as Chrome's memory use and Xcode's CPU use. The page also describes a written daily summary and a ⌘K palette; its privacy statement says it checks for updates and contacts Anthropic only to retrieve the user's Claude plan limits.
