Bigarrow lets an agent point to a control and hand the action to you

Bigarrow is a Swift command-line tool that draws temporary arrows, boxes and text over macOS applications. An agent can identify a control or coordinate and show a person where to act, instead of describing its location in chat. The tool points without clicking or typing, making it useful for tutorials and steps that require human interaction.

Why it matters

A concrete way to make an agent’s handoff understandable when a person needs to complete the next step.

More context

Try the MIT-licensed project on macOS using its documented Homebrew or source installation. Source builds require Xcode 16 or later and macOS 14 or later. Coordinate drawing needs no special permission; finding controls by accessibility label does. The original release date was not verified.

Keep in mind

This is a small project we have not executed or audited. Targeting browser content has documented limitations, and a convincing arrow does not establish that the suggested action is trustworthy. Review what the underlying application is asking before acting.
