Reading the current field

Native applications
Accessibility reads the focused field, surrounding text, and nearby labels. Optional Vision OCR adds text from the active window when needed.
Browser editors
A Chromium extension supplies DOM context for web editors that expose little text through Accessibility.
Local inference
MLX generates candidates locally. A filter rejects irrelevant or repeated continuations.

Displaying suggestions

An AppKit overlay shows the suggestion without taking focus. Acceptance is handled only while a suggestion is visible, and insertion preserves the clipboard.
