Windows companion app — open source Electron rewrite
farzaa/clicky
Hey! I built an open-source Windows version of Clicky using Electron + TypeScript.
## Repo
**https://github.com/tekram/clicky-windows**
## What it does
Same core experience as the macOS version, rebuilt for Windows:
- **Screen capture** via Electron desktopCapturer
- **Push-to-talk** with global hotkey (Ctrl+Alt+Space)
- **Claude vision** — screenshots + conversation context sent to Claude API
- **TTS** — ElevenLabs (cloud) or Windows SAPI (local/free)
- **Cursor overlay** — parses `[POINT:x,y:label:screenN]` tags and animates a pointing cursor
- **System tray** app with chat window and settings panel
## Key differences from macOS version
- **BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys)** — users enter their own API keys (Anthropic, AssemblyAI, ElevenLabs) via the UI
- **HIPAA mode** — toggle forces local-only processing (Whisper for transcription, Windows SAPI for TTS)
- **No proxy dependency** — works with direct API calls, but supports optional proxy URL for orgs
## Collaboration ideas
1. **Shared proxy** — would you be open to letting the Windows version use your Cloudflare Worker as an optional free tier for non-HIPAA users?
2. **Protocol spec** — could standardize the POINT tag format, conversation schema, etc. in a shared doc so both platforms stay compatible
3. **Cross-linking** — happy to reference the macOS version prominently, and vice versa
## Screenshots
The app features a modern dark UI with:
- Inline API key setup in the chat window
- Apple-inspired design language
- Smooth...
