Attention
macOS has no way to ask how many notifications a window has, but titles carry it often enough, and yabai reports them without any permission:
- Ghostty puts 🔔 in front of a terminal's title when it rings the bell, until you focus it. Agents and long commands that ring it when they finish or need input show up this way.
- Mail, chat and web apps put a count in front:
(3) Inbox,[12] Slack.
Such a window gets a red badge on its icon or tab (the count, or a dot); a pill turns red. Its space gets a bar under it
in the menu bar, so you see it from any space. yabar focus attention goes to the next one, and the
launcher shows them with a badge.
Turn it off under Settings → Stacks.
