I built JamePrompt because I kept losing track of my prompts.
As I started using AI tools more heavily, I found myself copying the same prompts repeatedly from notes, browser tabs, or text files scattered across my machine. Every existing solution either required an account, stored data in the cloud, or came with more features than I needed.
I wanted something simple: a local app that stores prompts on my own machine, lets me search and reuse them instantly, and stays out of the way when I'm not using it.
The approach evolved from a basic CLI tool to a full desktop app with a system tray, global hotkeys, and clipboard integration. The goal was always to minimize friction: assign a hotkey to a prompt once, trigger it from any app, and have the content ready to paste immediately.
JamePrompt is built in Rust, stores everything locally in SQLite, and ships as a native binary for Linux and Windows with no cloud dependency, no account required, and no background telemetry. It is fully open source under MIT.
I would love to hear how others manage their prompt libraries and what features would make this more useful for your workflow.
@roymejia2217 This is exactly the kind of friction point that deserves a focused tool. The local-first approach with global hotkeys is smart—most people don't need cloud sync for their prompts, they just need instant access. Curious whether you've thought about version control or sharing prompts within teams, or if keeping it single-user keeps the scope manageable.
