Runs on local models
Transcription, speaker naming and organising your day all happen with models on your Mac.
原文
A scope is a folder with specific rules. When you work in that folder, those rules apply automatically.
What scope are we in?
Scope /acme, from the folder you're in: ~/code/acme. In force here: 28 rules for /acme, plus the 22 global ones.
Show me all my scopes.
/ (global) 22 rules · 88 notes /acme 28 rules · 70 notes /myapp 91 rules · 269 notes /personal 0 rules · 4 notes
Your AI remembers what happened on your screen.
My disk is full. Any ideas?
Yes. Same thing as last month. Time Machine snapshots are filling up the disk. Run this to see how they sit: tmutil listlocalsnapshots / Or run this to clear them down: tmutil deletelocalsnapshots / For your reference they are taking up 197 GB of disk space right now.
Your AI was in the meeting. Ask it what you owe.
What do I owe from today's standup?
Three things, from the 09:32 standup: • Ella wants to run through the retailer bug asap. • Kai asked for the status on the loyalty dashboard. Ships Friday. • Luke wanted the sandbox login. You said "after this call". Nothing else was put on you.
Your AI knows how your day went.

Correct your AI and it offers to make a rule. Say yes and every AI you use follows it from now on.
Never push main without me saying so. Ever.
Want me to make this a permanent rule that every AI follows?[rule] proposed · "Never push main" Never push main, merge, publish, or release without my word. scope: /myapp
yes
Saved. This is law in /myapp moving forward.
Anything you just did can become a one word shortcut. Long workflow or a quick instruction, type your word and it runs.
What were my Friendbuy hours yesterday?
• 15m — Standup • 4h 10m — Loyalty dashboard • 4h 20m — BUG-292 Total: 8h 45m Offer: Would you like to make this a one word shortcut? I can save it as \fb-hours.
Yes
Done. You can now type \fb-hours for this report. Works in all your AIs.
Nothing goes to us. Your AI gets only what it asks for.
Everything stays on your Mac, encrypted with your key. When your AI asks Breadcrumb something, the answer goes to that AI just like anything you type. Use a local AI and nothing leaves. Use Claude or ChatGPT and their privacy policy applies.
Nothing goes to us
One daily update check with nothing posted (no identifying details sent). Watch Little Snitch to verify.
No voiceprints
Breadcrumb names speakers from what's on screen. It doesn't build voice profiles of anyone.
Record what you want
You can exclude apps, sites, words and phrases on screen. Incognito sites are never recorded.
Encrypted with your key
Your history is encrypted at rest. Your key stays in Keychain. We never get a copy.
12-word BIP39 recovery phrase. Yours, not ours.
Stop whenever you want
Instant pause from the menu bar. When paused, Breadcrumb records nothing at all.
This app is yours. No funny business.
