What lives in your notch

Loch's now-playing panel with real album art, a scrubber, and transport controls

Quiet by default

It shows up when something needs you.
Otherwise, it disappears.

A permission prompt. A finished build. A song change. That's when Loch takes the notch — every surface has an attention-only mode, so a running process never just sits there taking up space.
