This looks neat. Thanks for providing an open source alternative!

However, you say everything is "100% local", but then require an API key for one of the big 4 LLM providers. Anything leaving my PC isn't local. Could you add the option to use a local model (ie. Ollama or custom API URL) for inference? That would truly make it local first, and a great companion app.

Thanks for the wonderful feedback. I was planning to add a custom provider with a custom URL and API key, which will be released in the next update.
Awesome! Also, could you make it possible to move the widget around the screen? Right now, it's fixed at the top, potentially covering tabs or other objects.

And maybe even more critical, I can't click outside the widget to focus/work on anything else. So like, to type this message, I had to alt+tab (and hide the widget) to focus on the browser. I'm not sure if it's a limitation of Tauri, but if it could be a widget like the ChatGPT one, that would be great.

Sure, It’s actually an overlay which will always stay behind your active tab(when you click on other tabs from the left side or right side it will work). There is a particular height that I have added, which I will make dynamic in the next release. Maybe that might fix your issue. If you notice anything else or any other suggestions, let me know.
