Well, working on semiconductor production equipment, literally nobody calls them stack lights. Always heard them called light towers or signal towers. Also, they're pretty obsolete, but still used, for no good reason.
Stack light would fit really well, technically the meaning of green and yellow light should be reversed from the image, but shouldn't be too difficult to get used to
Yeah, in OPs picture the traffic light is more geared for the person putting in input as opposed to the machine itself. Green means user can take action.
Proper implementation of the stack light would treat Claude like a factory line, which is somewhat appropriate.
You will find literally hundreds of these lights in just about any factory. There are even companies that do pretty in-depth data tracking based on the light stack.
