Overview
Qursor is a Chrome extension that lets you inspect any website's UI elements—fonts, colors, spacing, components—and copy structured, code-aware context (selectors, classes, styles) for use with AI agents. It eliminates vague screenshots and wasted tokens by giving AI the exact element it needs to change.
Bob's CLI is a terminal-based AI engineering partner that runs locally on your machine. It provides code analysis, autonomous repair, behavioral profiling, and remote execution—all while keeping your code private. It supports local models via Ollama and cloud models via subscription.
