Overview
sideOS is a Mac app that sits in the notch: you hold Control and Option, speak your request and release. It reads the screen through the accessibility system, then opens apps, clicks and types to do the job and tells you the result aloud. Dictation and meeting transcription run on the Mac itself, and longer jobs such as research reports run in the background, asking first before anything that cannot be undone. It runs on local models or with API keys you supply. It controls your Mac through accessibility access, so grant those permissions with care.
