Current Project Status: raw Proof of Concept (PoC) (GIF demo on GitHub)

I’m sharing this project because I thought such a utility might be useful to someone. It’s incredibly simple adn raw.

On MacOS, there is already a service called Raycast AI. But its not free.

Technical part: Python + Tkinter (for the UI bar called via hotkey) + Ollama (qwen2.5:3b). I specifically avoided using any other heavy libraries, so the project turned out very lightweight.

Script logic: There is a /scripts folder in the project root. Every .py file is a script, essentially a command to be executed (I’ve attached a GIF demonstration of how it works on GitHub).

How it works: You copy the text you want to process, press the hotkey (Ctrl + Alt), and select the desired script (command). The script pulls the text from the clipboatd, executes its logic, and returns the result directly to the interface without breaking your workflow. You don't need a browser or any extra movements. All you need is Ollama already installed.

If you have any questions about the project, feel free to ask. I’ll be happy to answer!!
