LokalBot 0.3.0
LokalBot 0.3.0 expands the local meeting library into a private AI memory for the rest of your workday. It adds opt-in screen recall, safe local routines and exports, context-aware Dictation Compose, and a broad reliability pass across recording, inference, Agent Mode, and the desktop UI.
Highlights
- First-class screen recall: an opt-in Timeline and Rewind experience combines app activity, accessible text, local OCR fallback, semantic search, saved moments, exact citations, “ask your day,” and the
Control-Shift-SpaceQuick Recall window. - Privacy-first contextual memory: private/incognito windows, secure fields, excluded apps and domains, and detected credentials fail closed. Optional screenshot pixels are AES-GCM encrypted, retained for a bounded period, and never exposed through the CLI or MCP tools.
- Safe routines and exports: create local post-meeting follow-ups, stand-ups, weekly work logs, unfinished-action rollups, and journal drafts. Scheduled daily-memory exports can target Markdown, Obsidian, or Logseq folders you choose; routines have fixed read scopes and cannot run scripts, contact services, or send messages.
- Dictation Compose: hold
Option-Spaceand speak either finished prose or an instruction. LokalBot now composes the final insertable text and can use the focused window as ephemeral context without storing its image or OCR text. - Independent agent permissions: meeting-library and screen-memory MCP access remain separately disabled by default. Screen access can be limited to today, the rolling last seven days, or all retained history, and never returns decrypted pixels or screenshot paths.
- More dependable daily use: improved recording and context-capture responsiveness, fixed Timeline stalls and launch-time mouse input loss, repaired Dock-click reopening and Granite Speech authentication, hardened model downloads and inference lifecycles, and made meeting recaps prioritize the user’s own action items.

Upgrade notes
Existing meetings, settings, and permissions are preserved. Screen context, visual capture, routines, Quick Recall, Dictation, Agent Mode, and external-agent access remain opt-in. Features that use Accessibility or Screen Recording explain and request those grants in the app.
