Ask about what you're looking at, then let Glimpse reach the rest of your work. Every source is named under the answer, and nothing is sent until you approve it.
Thu 9:41 AMRollout, week of the 14th
Hold the release until the migration has run on staging for a full day. Ops still owe us a window, and the date in this doc is the one from three weeks ago.
Open: who signs off, and what we tell the customers already booked on the old date.
Ask anything…
Nothing on screen holds the answer. Glimpse reads Slack, Linear and the mail on your Mac at the same time, and names each one underneath.
Things people actually asked
Glimpse can read the window you’re in, then goes looking for the rest. Point it with @slack, @granola, @gmail — or just ask, and it picks the tools itself. Every read is named underneath the answer. Every write stops at a card with your name on it.
Ask anything…
Name the tool with an @mention when you know where the answer lives. Leave it out and Glimpse attaches the ones the question needs, then reads them at the same time.
Email, Slack posts, Linear issues, pull requests and note writes stop in an approval deck as drafts. A quit or a crash keeps the draft rather than sending it.
A search that finds nothing is retried once with names spelled the way the source has them — “jermy” becomes “Jeremy” — and the answer says it corrected you, instead of reporting that Jeremy never said a word.
What Glimpse carried out somewhere else is kept locally with its state and its link, so “did that go out, and where did it land?” has an answer an hour later.
Aim a question with its @mention, or just ask.
Searches and reads the mail already synced on your Mac, from Apple Mail's own store. Sending goes out through Gmail.
Searches and reads the channels and DMs you can already see.
Reads issues and their comment threads.
04Meeting notes and transcripts, across every call. When a call ends, it can plan your next hour from the notes.
Finds and reads pages across the workspaces you connect. /note can write into one.
Your vault: /recall searches it, /note writes to it, and what Glimpse learns gets filed there.
What's booked, adding events, moving them, RSVPs.
Glimpse's own list, kept on your Mac. Due dates read out of plain words.
/pr turns the real diff into a reviewed pull request. /repos finds every checkout on your Mac, no token needed.
Each one connects to an account you already have, and disconnects from the same screen. Nothing is read until a question needs it.
Search Slack, Linear, Notion, your mail and your vault from the same bar. Open a pull request, book the meeting, dictate a thought. Glimpse keeps the work in front of you and the next move one key away.
Aim it with @gmail, @calendar, @granola, @slack, @linear, @notion or @obsidian — or just ask, and Glimpse picks the tools itself. The reads run at the same time, and every source is named under the answer.

Rollout, week of the 14th
Hold the release until the migration has run on staging for a full day. Design sync moves to Thursday afternoon if Priya can make it; otherwise keep Friday and push the review a week.
Open questions: renewal terms on the MSA, passport for the Berlin trip, and whether the onboarding copy survives legal.
The other way
Most of the cost is the last step. The tab is quick; getting back into the sentence you were writing is not.
Three things Glimpse does with no model involved, all on your Mac. Each one below works: drag, search, type.
Drag over any text — a screenshot, a video frame, a locked PDF, a dialog — and it’s on your clipboard. Read by on-device Vision; nothing is uploaded.
Everything you copied recently, searchable, pasted back with Return. Kept encrypted on your Mac; password-manager copies and anything that looks like a key are never saved.
3 kept · encrypted on your Mac, the last 200
Copy anything on this page and it shows up here — held in this tab only.
Type an app’s name and it appears beside the bar; Return opens it. It stays out of the way of / commands, @ mentions and real questions.
Developers found it first. The same key reads a paper, a thread or a draft — and reaches the mail, calendar and issues behind it. Pick the desk that looks like yours.
/pr
Glimpse reads your screen only once you’ve turned Screen Context on and pressed the key, opens one of your services only when a question needs it, and never writes to anyone else until you press the button yourself.
Screen Context is off until you turn it on. Then Glimpse lifts the focused document through the macOS Accessibility API — whole pages, not just the pixels in view — and falls back to an on-device screenshot and OCR only when an app exposes no text.
No standing sync. A service is read on the turn a question needs it. Meeting follow-ups only check which call app holds the microphone — Glimpse never records or listens.
Passwords, API keys, tokens and card numbers are stripped on-device, and a screenshot is withheld entirely while one is visible. Email addresses and phone numbers are kept, so Glimpse can act on them.
Mail is read from Apple Mail's own store, not Google's API. Google data only ever goes to Anthropic, OpenAI or Google directly — never an aggregator — and conversations that read mail stay out of memory.
Email, Slack posts, Linear issues, pull requests and vault notes wait as drafts in the approval deck. What did go out is kept in a local ledger with its state and its link.
Ask Glimpse to remember, update or forget something and the change waits for your confirmation; a vague “forget” asks which fact you meant. Every memory can be edited in Settings, secrets are refused, and nothing is learned from a conversation that read your mail.
forget where I work
I have two facts that could mean. Which one?
Turn it on and Glimpse's windows are left out of recordings and screen sharing. You see the panel; the call sees your work.
Keys live in the macOS Keychain; history lives in an encrypted database on your Mac, synced only to your own iCloud. Erase the local and iCloud copies whenever you like — or delete the account, which cancels billing first and then removes it from the server, the Mac and iCloud.
Every one is a tab, a paste, a read, and a hunt for where you were. Call it forty seconds. It adds up faster than it feels.
