# Betty

A real-time TUI monitor for Claude Code sessions.

## Install

```bash
curl -fsSL https://betty4.sh/install.sh | bash
```

Or directly with uv / pip:

```bash
uvx betty-cli              # run without installing
uv tool install betty-cli  # install permanently
pip install betty-cli      # with pip
```

## Use

```bash
# Start betty
betty

# In another terminal, run Claude Code as usual
claude
```

The companion auto-detects your session. No hooks or configuration needed.

## Betty Agent

Betty Agent is a continuous session observer that tracks what Claude Code is doing and flags problems in real time. It combines heuristic detectors with optional LLM-powered narrative and drift detection.

### Enable

```bash
betty config --agent
```

Or set the environment variable `BETTY_AGENT_ENABLED=true`.

### What it does

- **Goal tracking** — extracts the session goal and current objective, updating as the user gives new instructions
- **Progress assessment** — classifies sessions as `on_track`, `stalled`, or `spinning` using error rates, retry patterns, and tool diversity
- **Error spike detection** — warns when error rate exceeds 40% in recent tool calls
- **Retry loop detection** — flags when the same tool is called 3+ times consecutively
- **Stall detection** — notices gaps of 2+ minutes between turns
- **File change tracking** — logs Read/Write/Edit operations with line counts
- **Milestones** — marks every 10th tool call and 5th user message
- **LLM narrative** (optional) — generates a 2-3 sentence situation report describing current activity
- **Goal drift detection** (optional) — compares recent activity against the session goal and warns if the assistant has gone off track
- **Ask Betty** — press `?` to ask a natural-language question about the session; Betty answers citing turn numbers and file paths

### Configuration

The agent uses your existing LLM configuration (set via `betty config`). LLM features (narrative, drift detection, goal determination, Ask Betty) require a configured LLM provider. Heuristic detectors work without one.

| Setting | Default | Description |
|---------|---------|-------------|
| `enabled` | `false` | Enable the agent (opt-in) |
| `update_interval` | `5` | Minimum turns between LLM updates |
| `max_observations` | `50` | Max observations kept per session |

Observations and reports are cached to disk (`~/.cache/betty/`) and persist across restarts.
