Desktop app
A floating bubble that answers from your organization's approved memory over any application — summoned with a global shortcut, signed in as you, fenced by exactly your permissions. Windows beta today; macOS is coming soon.
Install & sign in
- Download the installer
Grab the Windows build from the download page. It installs per-user — no admin rights needed. The beta installer is unsigned, so Windows may show a SmartScreen prompt: choose More info → Run anyway.
- Mint a personal token
In the web app, open Settings → Account → My personal token and generate a token (name it something like
Desktop on my PC). The secret is shown once — copy it. - Point the bubble at your deployment
On first launch the app asks for your Engram URL and the token. Paste both, connect, and the window disappears into the tray — from then on it's shortcut-only.
Using the bubble
Alt + Space— summon the bubble over whatever you're doing and ask in plain language. Answers cite the approved memories they came from, or refuse if nothing accessible covers the question.Alt + Shift + Space— grab a region screenshot and ask about it (an error dialog, a chart, a form) — the capture is attached to your question.- The tray icon offers Change token… (re-run sign-in) and quit.
Permissions & security
The desktop app is an ordinary API caller — there is no privileged desktop path. Every request carries your personal token, so retrieval is trimmed to your grants in SQL, the same fence as the web app, ⌘K omnibar, and MCP. Ask about something outside your access and you get a governed refusal, not a leak. Revoking the token in Settings instantly signs the desktop app out.
Mint a separate token for each machine (the name is yours to choose). If a laptop is lost, revoke just that token in Settings → Account — nothing else is affected.
Platform support
- Windows 10/11 (x64) — available now, in beta. The release channel is rolling: reinstalling from the download page always gives you the newest build.
