# Menu Bar Status Logic
## What is shown
- We surface the current agent work state in the menu bar icon and in the first status row of the menu.
- Health status is hidden while work is active; it returns when all sessions are idle.
- The “Nodes” block in the menu lists **devices** only (paired nodes via `node.list`), not client/presence entries.
- A “Usage” section appears under Context when provider usage snapshots are available.
## State model
- Sessions: events arrive with `runId` (per-run) plus `sessionKey` in the payload. The “main” session is the key `main`; if absent, we fall back to the most recently updated session.
- Priority: main always wins. If main is active, its state is shown immediately. If main is idle, the most recently active non‑main session is shown. We do not flip‑flop mid‑activity; we only switch when the current session goes idle or main becomes active.
- Activity kinds:
- `job`: high‑level command execution (`state: started|streaming|done|error`).
- `tool`: `phase: start|result` with `toolName` and `meta/args`.
## IconState enum (Swift)
- `idle`
- `workingMain(ActivityKind)`
- `workingOther(ActivityKind)`
- `overridden(ActivityKind)` (debug override)
### ActivityKind → glyph
- `exec` → 💻
- `read` → 📄
- `write` → ✍️
- `edit` → 📝
- `attach` → 📎
- default → 🛠️
### Visual mapping
- `idle`: normal critter.
- `workingMain`: badge with glyph, full tint, leg “working” animation.
- `workingOther`: badge with glyph, muted tint, no scurry.
- `overridden`: uses the chosen glyph/tint regardless of activity.
## Status row text (menu)
- While work is active: `<Session role> · <activity label>`
- Examples: `Main · exec: pnpm test`, `Other · read: apps/macos/Sources/OpenClaw/AppState.swift`.
- When idle: falls back to the health summary.
## Event ingestion
- Source: control‑channel `agent` events (`ControlChannel.handleAgentEvent`).
- Parsed fields:
- `stream: "job"` with `data.state` for start/stop.
- `stream: "tool"` with `data.phase`, `name`, optional `meta`/`args`.
- Labels:
- `exec`: first line of `args.command`.
- `read`/`write`: shortened path.
- `edit`: path plus inferred change kind from `meta`/diff counts.
- fallback: tool name.
## Debug override
- Settings ▸ Debug ▸ “Icon override” picker:
- `System (auto)` (default)
- `Working: main` (per tool kind)
- `Working: other` (per tool kind)
- `Idle`
- Stored via `@AppStorage("iconOverride")`; mapped to `IconState.overridden`.
## Testing checklist
- Trigger main session job: verify icon switches immediately and status row shows main label.
- Trigger non‑main session job while main idle: icon/status shows non‑main; stays stable until it finishes.
- Start main while other active: icon flips to main instantly.
- Rapid tool bursts: ensure badge does not flicker (TTL grace on tool results).
- Health row reappears once all sessions idle.
