Fixes AI agents telling you that Recall doesn't store screenshots.

Fixes

  • AI agents now know captures include screenshots. Recall's MCP server described captures as text only and said screenshots "aren't available", so agents concluded Recall keeps no screenshots. It now explains that every capture has a screenshot, stored encrypted on your Mac, and that by design only text is shared with agents.
  • Capture details mention the screenshot. get_capture now lists the screenshot's size and tells you where to view it in Recall (the Timeline at that time).

Screenshots are still never sent to agents. Restart your agent, or reconnect Recall in it, after updating so it picks up the new instructions.

Install

  • From 1.0.2 or later: use Check for Updates… in the app menu, then Install and Relaunch.
  • From an earlier version: download RecallForMac-1.1.3.zip, unzip it, and replace RecallForMac.app in /Applications. Your history and settings carry over.

Not notarized. Manual downloads are signed with a Developer ID but not notarized, so macOS may block the first launch. Right-click the app → Open, or allow it in System Settings → Privacy & Security.

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
