I’m exploring a prototype called Aeye.
Aeye is an AI agent that appears as a second visible cursor on the desktop.
The key idea:
- The user’s real cursor stays under user control.
- Aeye appears as a separate AI cursor overlay.
- It does not control the real OS cursor in the MVP.
- It observes, reacts, and suggests before acting.
- Its persona is expressed through motion, not just text.
- A cautious Aeye moves slowly and pauses before actions.
- A curious Aeye circles files and explores more actively.
- A guard-like Aeye moves between the user and risky buttons.
The goal is to make AI agents visible and understandable through movement.
I have a short demo video, but my account cannot post links yet.
I can share it later once link posting is available.
I’d like feedback on:
- Whether cursor-native AI agents feel useful or distracting.
- How to design permission boundaries.
- Whether persona-based motion could make AI agents more understandable.
