README

Jarhead

A voice-first Mac assistant that uses the computer for you.

Say "jarhead", pass Touch ID, talk. The voice is [GPT-Live-1](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/live), full duplex. The brain is whatever you already have a login for — Codex, Claude Code, an API key, a local server. The hands are a Swift helper on the real Mac. A dithered ASCII blob in the notch shows the work, and every step lands in an append-only ledger.

What it does

🎙️ Talks like a person. GPT-Live-1 listens and speaks at the same time; a spoken "stop" is the interrupt, not the end. About a second to the first word back, interruptible mid-sentence.
🔒 Wakes on a word, behind Touch ID. Asleep, the app runs Apple's on-device recogniser for "jarhead" — nothing billed, nothing leaves the Mac. Then Touch ID, Apple Watch, your Mac password or a passphrase (PBKDF2). Three misses lock the gate for a minute.
⏯️ One transport: Go · Pause · Stop. Pause and Stop both close the paid session, so the meter stops the moment you press. Pause holds the conversation; Go (or the wake word, no auth asked twice) resumes it in a new session with the transcript as continuity.
