AIPointer v1.1.2

New

Cursor accent picker. Settings, Appearance, Cursor accent. Three brand presets: Lime (default), Blue (macOS system blue), Magenta. The comet trail, halo, status dot, focus rings, and every accent-tinted surface retint live without restart. No free-form picker, palette stays curated.

Chat-only mode. Settings, Behaviour. Toggle on to open AIPointer as a pure chat window with no auto-attached screenshot. A small camera button appears inside the prompt input whenever no screenshot is attached, click it to attach one per query. Good for follow-up questions and quick lookups where you already know what you want to ask. Default off, v1.1.1 behavior preserved.

Pause and resume for text-to-speech. The Read button under each response is now a real play, pause, resume toggle. First click plays, second click pauses at the current position, third click resumes from there. Stop-words ("stop", "halt", "sei ruhig"), ESC, and a new query still fully end playback. Works for both Web Speech API and provider-TTS (OpenAI, Gemini). Closes #3.

Activation section in Settings. Keyboard hotkey dropdown and a Mouse-wiggle on/off toggle, both live-applied. The wiggle has existed since v1.1.0 but had no UI control. Default stays on, no sensitivity slider. Closes #4.

Changed

Floating chip toolbar. Screenshot and Clipboard chips now render as a horizontal toolbar above the BottomPill, collapsed as small icon bubbles by default. Hover to expand to icon, label, and dismiss button. High-opacity tint with white text so they stay readable against any backdrop (light AIPointer over a dark website, dark AIPointer over a bright editor). Replaces the banner-style strip inside the prompt input.

System prompt now knows its own version. A {{VERSION}} placeholder gets substituted with the running version at request time, so the LLM always answers correctly when asked which version it is on.

All repository links point to github.com/gonemedia/aipointer across the About window, settings footer, tray menu, FAQ, save-template footer, system prompt, and package.json.

Fixed

Manual theme choice persists across macOS appearance changes. Picking Light or Dark would silently flip back to system theme whenever macOS toggled appearance. The theme preference now owns the dark class entirely.

Chip text contrast. The old translucent fill bled the desktop through and made chip text unreadable when AIPointer floated over high-contrast backgrounds. Fixed alongside the new floating toolbar.

License

AIPointer moves from MIT to the Business Source License 1.1, the same license as Skales (the author's main project). Source stays public on GitHub. Personal, educational, and internal business use remain free. Commercial redistribution, SaaS hosting, white-labeling, bundling, and resale require a written commercial license. Reverts automatically to Apache 2.0 on 2030-05-19. Older releases (v1.1.1 and earlier) keep their MIT terms.

See NOTICE.md for the public reasoning and COMMERCIAL-LICENSE.md for licensing inquiries.
