About World Monitor
World Monitor is a real-time global intelligence dashboard that visualizes raw global signals on a live 3D map. Designed to bypass the lag of traditional news headlines, the platform streams data covering ships, jets, sirens, subsea cables, and markets, using artificial intelligence to highlight when these signals converge into critical events.
Built with developers and intelligence analysts in mind, World Monitor features 56 live layers—including AIS shipping, flight tracking, GPS jamming, and power grids—alongside corroborated AI alerts that trigger only when independent sources agree. Additionally, it offers an Instability Index with instant dossiers and AI briefs for 196 countries, complemented by a 39-tool MCP server and REST API built specifically for AI agents.

About Vizhi
Vizhi (derived from the Tamil word for "eye") acts as a specialized mission control dashboard for monitoring and managing your Codex CLI sessions. Developed by indie developer Ravi Shankar, Vizhi is designed to keep an eye on active execution sessions so developers don't have to constantly tab back and forth into their terminal windows.
The tool provides deep integration with hardware controllers like the Logitech MX Creative Keypad, enabling users to keep track of up to six live sessions simultaneously. Through this physical interface, developers can perform quick action executions, such as one-press session approvals, and issue local voice prompts powered by Whisper.
For developers who do not own a hardware keypad, Vizhi provides a local browser dashboard that offers visibility and control over active sessions. As an open-source developer tool available on GitHub, Vizhi fits seamlessly into terminal-centric AI development workflows.
Pros of Vizhi
- Monitors up to six live Codex CLI sessions simultaneously
- Integrates with Logitech MX Creative Keypad for tactile, one-press approvals
- Supports local Whisper voice prompts for easy command input
- Offers a local browser dashboard for users without a physical keypad
- Open-source developer tool available on GitHub
Cons of Vizhi
- Full physical experience requires a specific device (Logitech MX Creative Keypad)
- Designed specifically around Codex CLI workflows rather than general terminal tasks
