Goldfish

The core interaction is a single keystroke. Hit ⌥ Option in any text field on your Mac and Goldfish reads the screen context, then offers a reply, summary, or continuation. It works in email, Slack, WhatsApp, Notion, your browser, and your editor. No setup. No integrations.

Goldfish captures context as your work happens, then turns it into searchable memory stored in a SQLite database on your Mac. That means you stop re-explaining background every time you open a new AI chat. It writes with the context you'd otherwise have to spell out by hand. Not just your tone.

Over time, Goldfish picks up your writing style across apps, scenarios, and people, so drafts read like something you wrote. It also learns your recurring workflows and flags forgotten follow-ups before they slip. Quiet feature. The one that separates a memory app from a plain text generator.

Goldfish connects to Claude Desktop through a local MCP server, so your computer's context shows up inside Claude itself, right where you already think and write. If you already use Claude as your main thinking tool, this saves you a window switch. No more hunting for background. The connection runs locally rather than through a hosted middleman.

Beyond one-off drafts, Goldfish builds a browsable wiki of your activity that you can look through when you need to trace back what you were doing and where you left off. That helps most when a project spans days or weeks and your memory of it goes fuzzy. Think of it as an index. An index to your own working memory.

Your data stays in a local database, and the maker says no one can see it, not even them. AI requests go through Azure OpenAI with zero data retention and no training on your data. For a tool that watches your screen constantly, that design choice matters. It's the difference between usable and creepy.
