Your coding agent gets the element you point at, not a screenshot.
FreemacOS 15 or later
One ball points at a website, a Mac app, and an iPhone app.
Paste what you point at into any of these. Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex can also fetch it over MCP.
Tested against a screenshot of the same element, with the same note and the same model. The agent had two copies of the code, and only one was on screen.
Locant runs that edited the wrong copy. With a screenshot: 14 of 20.
39 seconds to the right file. With a screenshot: 80 seconds.
$0.55 a run. With a screenshot: $1.13.
Tested on Claude Code, graded blind. Read the report.
Press and hold the ball.
A region or a window, as a PNG.
The words on screen, to the clipboard.
Any pixel, as hex, RGB, HSL, or SwiftUI Color.
The subject on a transparent background.
Run the app after your agent’s edit. Locant finds the same element and shows it before and after, with the diff.
Accessibility to see what’s under your cursor. Screen Recording to take its picture.
No telemetry, no accounts. The one request is a daily check for a newer version, and you can turn it off.
Every build is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
No Dock icon. Nothing pulses, bounces, or waits for you to notice it.
