Atticus - Hold-to-talk voice assistant for macOS on Claude
Show HN: Atticus – Hold-to-talk voice assistant for macOS that runs on Claude -p

Atticus is a free, open-source voice assistant for macOS that runs on your existing Claude Pro or Max plan—no API key required. Hold ⌃⌥Space, speak, and it moves windows, finds files, reads your screen, and controls apps. Simple commands skip AI entirely (apps open in 0.08s), and repeated actions become learned shortcuts. It remembers your preferences, keeps audio on-device, and runs AI commands in a sandbox with confirmation before anything destructive. Install via a single Terminal command.
Fast, free voice assistant for your Mac. No API key: runs on your Claude Pro or Max plan. Remembers you and learns your shortcuts. Hold ⌃⌥Space and talk.

Will this work on the Windows as well or just for mac users. by the way really like it from what I can see it from the demo video. If it works as it shown and also I dont thinks so that it is for windows would love if you can clear this out.
