Dev builds Echo, a Mac assistant that sees your screen and acts — made heavily with Claude Code

A Reddit user shared Echo, a Mac assistant built over several months with heavy use of Claude Code for architecture, implementation, debugging, computer-use work, and UI iteration.
Echo lives at the edge of your screen and can understand what's on screen, point at specific items, interact with apps, move files, check Gmail, search the web, build websites, run multi-step jobs, and undo actions. The author focused on making the interaction feel physical: an orb leaves the edge, does things, and returns home, instead of a normal floating AI window. It's free to try for 7 days.
