About Proto-Mind
Proto-Mind is a native macOS application that integrates AI conversations, project memory, files and voice commands into a single floating workspace. The tool allows users to run parallel tasks, choose between different AI models, and arrange companion windows around their desktop. It supports Codex subscriptions, third-party model APIs, and local Ollama models, with each chat able to use its own model and account. Users can enable Mac access to allow tasks involving files and system commands, while voice interactions require an OpenAI API key. Conversation history and project memory are stored locally on the Mac, with cloud processing optional and user-controlled. The interface supports English and Russian, and the workspace can be folded into a cube to minimize screen clutter when not in use.

Frequently asked questions about Proto-Mind

Who is Proto-Mind designed for?
Proto-Mind is designed for macOS users, particularly those who work with AI models, manage projects, and prefer a customizable workspace. It suits individuals who need continuity in conversations, voice interactions, and local data storage.
What AI models does Proto-Mind support?
Proto-Mind supports Codex subscriptions, third-party model APIs, and local Ollama models. Each chat can use its own model and account, including personal ChatGPT accounts with Codex access.
Does Proto-Mind require an OpenAI API key?
Live voice interactions require an OpenAI API key, which is billed separately. Text tasks do not need an API key unless using cloud models.
Can Proto-Mind access files and control my Mac?
Mac access must be explicitly enabled in Proto-Mind. Codex can work with files and commands, but screen control requires an additional signed helper from Codex Desktop with macOS permissions.
Where is my data stored in Proto-Mind?
Conversation history and project memory are stored locally on your Mac. When using cloud models or voice, relevant text, audio, and context may be sent to the provider. Local Ollama models are also supported, and cloud processing is optional.
