Oh this is actually a good idea!

I’m a heavy Anki user but haven’t considered doing Anki while waiting on LLM responses.

Raycast is a desktop AI agent?

I see that your extension supports specific Anki note types. I really heavily on custom note types. Is there an interface to add support for custom note types? Does it run on Linux?

No - it is a MacOS launcher app. This Spotlight but with quite a few more features and very extensible (especially if you code) and has a large open source extension community (mine is just one of many)

> does it run on Linux?

Sadly no, only Mac for now but I think they’re expanding to Windows and Linux on future.

> custom note types

Not really sadly :/

I want to add many improvements including this but I don’t have capacity right now - hands full with another project

Thank you, Mac launchers are always interesting. That seems to be a big field.

As soon as I find a good desktop AI agent for Linux, I think I'll take a shot a writing an Anki MCP server.
