Boltbar is a native macOS AI chat bar. Press ⌥ Space in any app to ask GPT or Claude, then get back to work. Agent mode hands Claude Code or Codex a project with Look/Ask/Edit/Full permissions. MIT, signed and notarized; brew or DMG. Optional €19 supporter license.







Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Boltbar because I was tired of switching windows just to ask GPT or Claude something small.
It’s a tiny native macOS chat bar (Swift, not Electron). Press ⌥Space in any app → ask → get back to work. There’s also an agent mode that can hand a project folder to Claude Code or Codex with Look / Ask / Edit / Full permissions.
Free and open source (MIT).
Signed + notarized. Install it by grabbing the DMG from the site or with brew
Would love feedback on the agent permissions UX and anything that feels off on your Mac. What would make this a daily driver for you?
