Release Notes: Magisor v1.0.0 🪄
We are excited to announce the first official production-ready release of Magisor — a beautiful, lightweight, and modern AI-powered cursor overlay tool for Windows! Magisor brings context-aware multimodal AI right to your cursor tip with a fluid glassmorphic UI and seamless Windows integration.
🚀 Key Features
Global Shake Gesture Detection: Summon the visual interface seamlessly by shaking your cursor, powered by high-performance, low-level mouse hooks.
Multimodal Context Reader: Captures a precise visual region around your cursor and extracts accessibility-tree text under the pointer via Windows UI Automation.
Gemini 2.0 Engine: Automatically processes your requests using state-of-the-art vision models (e.g., gemini-2.0-flash).
Sleek PyQt5 Overlay: Beautiful frameless PyQt5 interface with typing inputs, loading indicators, and smart follow-up prompts.
Quick Desktop Actions: Instantly copy parsed text, open web links, and execute automation commands directly from the UI.
Privacy-First Design: Statically and dynamically sandboxed configurations. Your API key and preferences are stored strictly locally in %APPDATA%/Magisor/settings.json.
🛠️ Installation & Setup
Download the Installer: Download the Magisor Setup 1.0.exe from the Assets section below.
Run the Installer: Launch the installer and follow the wizard. It will install the application, register standard Start Menu shortcuts, and configure a startup item so Magisor is ready when Windows boots.
Configure Your API Key: Upon first launch, Magisor's onboarding wizard will open. Enter your Google Gemini API Key.
Don't have a key? You can get one for free in under a minute at Google AI Studio.
Trigger Magisor: Shake your mouse quickly, or right-click the Magisor system tray icon 🪄 and choose Open Overlay.
🐛 Fixes & Enhancements in v1.0.0
Model Compatibility Update: Removed hardcoded references to deprecated models. The application now dynamically pulls GEMINI_MODEL (defaulting to gemini-2.0-flash) from .env or system configurations.
Install Directory Pathing Fix: Solved a stale registry path issue in the NSIS installer that caused clean re-installations to point back to old temporary build folders.
API Key Masking: Settings tray UI now securely masks the API key (e.g. AIza•••••••••••••••••wc) to prevent shoulder surfing while retaining raw credentials on save.
