Metedata
Remarc is a free and open-source macOS application that serves as a contextual feedback layer for AI coding agents. It lives in the menu bar and allows users to leave comments, screenshots, and voice critiques on anything on their screen, which are then delivered to AI agents with full context via MCP. The tool is designed to streamline the feedback loop between developers and AI agents, addressing the 'last 10%' of product refinement that requires rigorous QA and iteration. It supports integrations with Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent. Remarc stores comments locally, has no accounts or telemetry, and offers a Chrome extension for attaching web context to comments.

Agency Audit
Remarc is a niche but valuable tool for developers and designers who work heavily with AI coding agents and need a structured way to provide visual and contextual feedback. It is free, open-source, and privacy-focused, making it a low-risk addition to a solo developer's or small team's workflow. However, it is macOS-only and lacks multi-user or agency-specific features, limiting its appeal for larger agencies.

Voice critiques transcribed on-device for privacy
vs Cloud-based voice transcription servicesVoice transcription runs on-device, and comments are stored locally with no accounts or telemetry.
Works with any MCP-compatible agent
