Automations
Every icon is a tiny automation. Configure it once, glance at it forever.
Know at a glance whether your external camera, mic or dongle is currently plugged in — before you join the call.
Watch a list of URLs. The icon fills as more sites respond healthy — checked every 30 seconds.
Latency to any host, right in the menu bar. Live sparkline with now, min, avg and max — no terminal.
Run any shell command on a schedule and render its output in the tray — weather, CI, crypto, anything.
Hundreds of glyphs, an on / off color per state, and an active toggle. No config files, no code.
Calendar events, Bluetooth, VPN, focus modes — more automations are on the way.
How it works
Every HyperTray icon is an automation. Choose a type — USB, Ping, Uptime, Script — pick a glyph, pick on & off colors, and it lights up your menu bar in real time.

Limitless customization
HyperTray can run any shell command on a schedule and turn its output into a tray icon. Weather, CI status, stock prices, build queues — if you can script it, you can see it.
# Bitcoin price (max 10 chars)
price=$(curl -s "https://api.coinbase.com/v2/prices/BTC-USD/spot" \
| jq -r '.data.amount' | awk '{printf "$%.1fk", $1/1000}')

Describe the automation you want in plain English. Glaze AI writes the bash script, wires it to the tray icon, and lets you review or tweak the result before it goes live in your menu bar.
