Magpie brings an AI action bar to macOS text selection
Open Source China showcased Magpie, a macOS text-selection AI tool that pops up a floating bar when you select or double-click text, showing translation, explanation and summaries in real time and letting you copy, search, write to Obsidian or prefill a calendar entry. The report says box-selecting text inside images, videos and scanned documents also works, with processing done in place rather than moving content into a chat window. It also points to the project's Gitee and GitHub repositories.
It puts translation, explanation and summarization in a bar next to the selected text and sends results straight to destinations such as Obsidian or a calendar, instead of opening a separate chat window.
macOS 划词 AI 工具 划选或双击,浮动条随即弹出:翻译、解释、总结实时呈现;复制、搜索、写入 Obsidian、预填日历,结果直接落地。图片、视频与扫描文档中的文字,框选亦可识别——处理在原地完成,无需迁入对话窗口。https://gitee.com/anziguoer/Magpie https://github.com/demo007x/Magpie...
