Openclicky
Openclicky is an open-source macOS voice companion that handles dictation, on-screen queries, and agentic workflows.
Openclicky is an open-source macOS voice companion derived from Farza's Clicky. It provides offline dictation using Apple's on-device recogniser, cleaning up words based on the active app style and pasting them directly at the cursor. Users can also ask questions about their screen using voice, point at items, and hand real work to a Codex agent via a TypeScript CLI. It supports optional network engines like Sarvam for Indian languages or OpenAI for polishing takes and rewriting selected text. The app stores history locally in SQLite and includes features like custom dictionaries, spoken shortcuts, and an interactive orb UI.
