🛠 The open-source project Wisp has been released — a desktop AI overlay for Windows, macOS, and Linux that operates via hotkeys.
The application allows you to use any model (from local Ollama to cloud-based Gemini and Groq) without switching windows, providing context from selected text, the clipboard, or screenshots. Version v0.9 added support for MCP (Model Context Protocol) to connect external tools.
🌍 Wisp demonstrates the trend of integrating AI into workflows through lightweight overlays and standards like MCP, reducing the cognitive load caused by switching between applications.
👤 This is a convenient tool for those who want to use LLMs directly in a code editor or browser while maintaining focus, and who also value privacy and provider choice.
