I built a local Qwen2.5-VL desktop tool that lets you ask questions about any part of your screen (using Ollama + live overlays)

This project implements a local desktop application using Qwen2.5-VL (a vision-language model) and Ollama that enables users to interactively query visual content on their screen through a live overlay interface. The tool allows users to ask questions about any portion of their screen without sending data to external servers, leveraging local processing for privacy and offline functionality. Built for the Ollama community, it demonstrates practical application of open-source vision models for desktop productivity tasks.
