TRex Feature Roadmap

1. OCR History / Clipboard Log ✅ Done

  • Searchable history of past captures (text + source thumbnail)
  • Store last N captures with timestamps
  • Re-copy or search through past results
  • Persist across app launches
  • JSON + thumbnails in ~/Library/Application Support/TRex/History/
  • Configurable max entries (1–10,000, default 100) with automatic pruning and bounds clamping
  • Dedicated history window (HSplitView: list + detail) via menu bar submenu or trex://showHistory
  • Menu bar "History" submenu shows last 5 captures for quick copy
  • Enable/disable toggle and controls in history window sidebar footer
  • CLI excluded from history writes

2. Watch Mode / Continuous Capture

  • Monitor a screen region, re-capture on content change (pixel diff)
  • Use cases: live dashboards, subtitles, changing data
  • Output options: append to file, append to clipboard, notification stream

3. Multi-Region Capture ✅ Done

  • Draw multiple selection boxes in a single capture session
  • Combine or individually process each region
  • Useful for tables, forms, scattered UI elements
  • Loop-based capture: user selects regions one at a time, press Escape to finish
  • OCR results combined with double-newline separator, optional LLM post-processing
  • Keyboard shortcuts and menu bar item for both clipboard and automation modes
  • URL scheme support: trex://capturemultiregion, trex://capturemultiregionautomation
  • Max 50 regions per session to prevent unbounded memory growth

4. Table / Structured Data Mode ✅ Done

  • Use Apple Vision RecognizeDocumentsRequest (macOS 26+, WWDC25) for native table detection
  • Returns DocumentObservation with hierarchical structure (rows, columns, cells)
  • Output as CSV, TSV, or Markdown table
  • Fallback: LLM post-processor with table-extraction prompt for macOS < 26
  • Ref: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/272/
  • Enabled by default; toggle + output format selectable from menu bar submenu (Markdown, CSV, TSV, JSON)
  • Toggle and format picker also available in General Settings
  • Bounding-box filtering separates table text from surrounding paragraphs
  • LLM post-processing runs after table detection when both are enabled

5. Translation on Capture

  • Optionally translate OCR'd text before copying to clipboard
  • Apple Translation framework (macOS 15+) for on-device translation
  • LLM providers as alternative translation backend
  • Settings: toggle + target language selector
