PointerSense v0.2.0
What's new in v0.2.0
A meaningful refresh — redesigned setup UI, two new AI providers, and detection bug fixes.
Setup window — full redesign
- macOS-style sidebar layout: Overview / AI Providers / Detection / Output / Privacy
- Indigo + lavender color palette matching the website
- API Keys completely reworked — one clean row per provider with show/hide toggle, status badge, Save/Clear, and "Use this" to switch active provider
- Segmented controls for detection mode, trigger mode, output mode, and answer length
- iOS-style toggle switches for History and Launch-at-login
- Cleaner Overview tab
New AI providers
- Groq — default model
openai/gpt-oss-20b(~1000 tokens/sec, the fastest cloud LLM available) - Command Code AI — OpenAI-compatible endpoint
- Six total providers now: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama Cloud, Groq, Command Code
Ollama Cloud model list refreshed
- Added: Gemini 3 Flash (new default), Nemotron 3 Nano 4B, RNJ-1, Gemma 4 31B Cloud
- Removed: nemotron-3-super and deepseek-v3.2 (these are reasoning models that caused 3-4s delays)
- Fixed:
qwen3.6(didn't exist) →qwen3.5(correct tag)
Detection bug fixes
- Selected Text Only now works in Safari, Chrome, Notes, Electron apps. Previously it only read from the system-wide focused element which fails in webviews; now falls back to reading
AXSelectedTextfrom the element directly under the cursor. - Hold Option now feels instant — previously it still waited for the 700ms dwell delay, now it bypasses dwell entirely and uses a 600ms rate limit. Hold Option → fires immediately.
