Show HN: Copilot-style assistant that works offline, with screen/mic/text

I got frustrated trying to use GitHub Copilot in restricted environments, airgapped networks, legacy IDEs, places with no extensions allowed. So I built QuietPrompt, a local-first Copilot-style helper. It comes with an installer to Windows too, Installer.

It reads your screen (via hotkey OCR), listens to your mic (Whisper), or grabs from clipboard, and pipes it to your own LLM, totally offline. Works with Qwen 30B but requires a heavy PC, 32GB RAM min and a 3060 Ti GPU min.

Open-source, free for personal use, Windows-only for now. Happy to hear what you'd improve or add.
