Every package Amical depends on, ranked by repo health score.
Amical is an open-source, local-first AI dictation app that lets you type hands-free using your voice, with no audio ever sent to the cloud. It runs Whisper (via whisper.cpp) for speech-to-text and optional local LLMs (via Ollama or OpenAI-compatible APIs) for intelligent formatting — all on your own hardware.
What makes Amical stand out is its context-aware pipeline: it reads the active application's bundle identifier via OS accessibility APIs and adjusts its LLM prompt accordingly — applying email conventions in Apple Mail or Outlook, conversational tone in Slack or Discord, and structured Markdown in note-taking apps. This isn't a generic transcription tool — it's a dictation layer that adapts to whatever you're doing.
The app ships as an Electron desktop client for macOS and Windows, with an Android app already available and an iOS beta in progress. A floating widget with configurable global hotkeys lets you start and stop recording from anywhere without switching windows. A voice-based notes mode with Lexical rich-text editing rounds out the feature set.
