Internal by default.
Moonlight uses native Mac capabilities for files, notes, calendars, apps, and local models whenever the work can stay on your computer.
Moonlight connects the context scattered across your apps, remembers what matters, and helps carry out your intent—without turning your life into someone else’s data.
Internal capability. External reach.
Moonlight is built to offer personalized assistance while protecting your data and identity. Internal Mac capabilities keep work local; external apps and MCP services are reached only when the task requires them, without surrendering control.
Moonlight uses native Mac capabilities for files, notes, calendars, apps, and local models whenever the work can stay on your computer.
Apps and MCP services extend what Moonlight can do without becoming the place where your personal context or identity lives.
An external service receives a bounded request for the action at hand—not your broader history or general access to Moonlight.
Moonlight brings the result home, keeps a useful record of what happened, and preserves review or Undo wherever the capability supports it.
The core proposition
Moonlight is a reflection of you: how you work, what you care about, what you return to, and the exceptions that make a generic assistant miss the point. It connects those patterns across the apps you choose, so its help becomes more useful over time while that understanding remains on your Mac, under your control.
A pattern may improve a suggestion. It never grants permission to send, buy, publish, move, or share.
You return to the same records across several evening reading sessions, but choose discovery on weekend mornings. Moonlight ranks each context differently and shows the exact sessions behind its reasoning.
Why this? · Correct · Suppress · ForgetAn invoice arrives in Mail, its PDF lives in Documents, its project exists in Paradox, and a payment confirmation appears later. Moonlight maintains one source-linked payable → paid view and suggests—never silently sends—an overdue follow-up.
Mail · Documents · Projects · CalendarKeep return windows and warranties visible, remember that a size runs small or a material wears well, and favour proven choices later—without treating a purchase as proof of satisfaction.

What Moonlight does
Ask naturally. Moonlight brings together local understanding and typed capabilities, while the apps that hold your work remain authoritative.
Native Mac capabilities
A complete capability map for the Mac. Connect only the apps and parts of your digital life you want Moonlight to work with.
Open, switch, and quit apps. Start workspaces, run Shortcuts, change appearance, and set Focus.
Find indexed files by name or contents, reveal results in Finder, and open them in the app you choose.
Find availability, create or change events, and manage reminders and reminder-backed tasks.
Open URLs and find pages from Safari, Chrome, Brave, or Firefox through local history and private Page Memory.
Search, read, create, edit, move, and organise notes and folders through Apple’s public automation interface.
Control Spotify or Apple Music while keeping your saved context independent of either provider.
Summarise or rewrite selected text, work with the clipboard, and understand or transform local documents.
Search and understand messages, prepare replies and drafts, and keep sending behind explicit authority.
Run approved shell, Git, build, and test commands; open projects; and follow work in connected coding apps.
Find people and use the right contact route without turning local relationship context into general sharing authority.
Find, convert, resize, organise, and understand images through Photos, Vision, and local media tools.
Search places, calculate routes and travel time, open directions, and share an ETA only when asked.
How it comes together
Have a private conversation, ask about saved context, or turn plain language into a concrete action.
Keep inspectable memories, preferences, and source-linked context that survive the end of a conversation.
Work across apps, files, reminders, calendars, selected text, the clipboard, media, and developer workflows.
Recall local files and pages from Safari, Chrome, Brave, or Firefox—even when all you remember is what they looked like.
Control playback while keeping explicit taste, corrections, and listening context independent of any one provider.
Add capable local or remote apps through MCP without handing them the keys to everything Moonlight knows.
Connectors + MCP
Moonlight is the trusted layer between your intent and the systems that can fulfil it. Native connectors understand the Mac. MCP lets you add compatible tools and services on your terms.
Native connections, verified MCPs, and integrations planned for Moonlight’s launch catalog—all governed from the same personal boundary.
Download, verification, and storage happen inside the app.
Local models, made ordinary
Moonlight downloads, verifies, stores, and runs models locally. The target launch experience will surface compatible choices for your Mac; whichever you choose, your memories, preferences, and personal state remain yours.
Frontier intelligence when you need it
Moonlight does not compete with GPT, Claude, DeepSeek, or the models available through Groq. It gives you a private, personal layer that can ask them for a stronger answer when you choose—without handing them control of Moonlight.
Your selected conversation context goes to the provider you choose. Your personal model, identity, connectors, and authority to act remain in Moonlight on your Mac.
Private by architecture
Moonlight is being built as a one-off purchase whose core runs on your Mac. Optional outside services remain optional—and their terms do not become ownership of your personal intelligence.
Your personal model, retained context, and corrections live in app-owned storage on your Mac.
See what Moonlight remembers, correct it when it is wrong, and explicitly Forget what should not remain.
Understanding your context never silently grants authority to communicate, buy, publish, or change your data.
Models and providers can change without taking your personal history and preferences with them.
