Download the latest signed, notarized build from Releases:
- Download
Clickyy-<version>-arm64.dmg - Open it and drag Clickyy into Applications

Clickyy is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it opens normally with no Gatekeeper warning. Once installed, it checks for updates automatically in the background.
🚀 Usage
After setup, shake your cursor rapidly left-right anywhere to summon Clickyy. Then ask a question or give a task in plain English. For example:
Shake cursor → overlay appears → type "What is this window?" → get answer
Or switch to Agent mode and say "Click the submit button" and it will do it.
⚠️ Good to know
Clickyy is macOS only (Apple Silicon, macOS 12+). Agent mode is experimental and requires explicit approval for destructive actions.
