Getting Started
Run the shortest real path first, then expand.
First-run checklist
- Open Dictionary and go to permissions setup.
- Authorize Accessibility first.
- Authorize Screen Recording if you use Hover Lookup or OCR.
- Authorize Input Monitoring only if you enable Option-key-required hover.
- Trigger one lookup from selection and run one rewrite action.
- Trigger one OCR lookup from screenshot text.
If these steps work, your main workflow is ready.
Permission-to-feature mapping
- Accessibility: Hover Lookup, Selection Popup, Quick Translate.
- Screen Recording: Hover Lookup and OCR hotkey flow.
- Input Monitoring: Only required for Option-key-required hover.
Detailed steps: Permissions Setup
Quick verification flow
