I made Claude Code actually show its work on screen (click, type, scroll) — feels way less intimidating than reading terminal output

When I was learning to code, watching someone else's screen (a tutorial, a pair-programming session) always taught me more than reading a wall of terminal commands. So I built Manoo — a Claude Code plugin that gives it screenshot + mouse/keyboard control, and splits your screen so you can actually watch it click, type, and scroll in real time, with a glowing cursor so you always know it's Claude moving and not you.

It's not just for automating boring tasks (though it does that too) — if you're learning, seeing exactly where it clicks and why is honestly a nice way to build intuition for how these tools actually work under the hood, instead of it feeling like a black box.

It stops instantly the moment you touch your own mouse/keyboard — you always have the wheel. Free tier, 100% local, Linux/X11 for now.
