Talk about your screenBeta
Speechy's Agent is a spoken conversation about what's on your Mac screen. Press Left ⌥ + Left ⌘, ask, and press again to send: it looks at the screen, says the answer first and shows you where. Your voice is turned into words on your Mac, and the screen is only looked at while the Agent is on.

Questions

It only looks when you press the key, and never at apps on your App Context exclusion list. It asks for Screen Recording the first time; without it, it works from the window's buttons and labels and tells you so.
