Frequently asked questions

The most common questions about optionOS: working with agents, offline use, privacy and pricing. Every answer describes today's behavior; when behavior changes, this page changes with it.

Claude Code and Codex sessions running in the Ghostty terminal are captured automatically the moment you turn on Cockpit in settings — there is no extra setup; the app writes the hooks itself. Dictation works in every app: speak, and text lands wherever your cursor is. What you copy, capture and mark while speaking is embedded into the transcript in order; you paste the result to your agent as one piece.

All of them. optionOS produces an agent-ready task packet: intent, evidence and exact references in one text. Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, Copilot or any other agent; for terminal agents (Claude Code, Codex) the Cockpit panel also shows sessions live.

Transcription runs on-device with Whisper by default; no internet is required. You can optionally pick a cloud transcription fallback (ElevenLabs) in settings — that is your choice. Your clipboard history and voice recordings stay on your Mac.

Clipboard contents that password managers mark as concealed are detected and classified as sensitive/password; your clipboard data never leaves your device. You can see and manage how sensitive entries are handled in the app's Clipboard settings.

It is a complete spoken work session: what you said (speech), what you did (copy, capture and annotation events) and what you showed (screenshots, GIFs, marked regions) stay attached in one packet, in time order. The agent never asks "which file, where, what did you want" — the packet carries all of it.

Free until Version 1, no card required. The V1 price will be announced before paid access begins.
