Menu bar & popover
Remarc lives in your menu bar. Left-click the icon to open the popover with your comments, right-click it for a utility menu, or press Ctrl+Option+R to open the popover from anywhere.
Menu bar icon
Section titled “Menu bar icon”The menu bar icon shows a count badge when you have comments. When a new comment lands, the badge bounces with the updated count.
When Remarc is paused, the icon dims and selection detection stops. Pause and resume from the right-click menu.
Popover
Section titled “Popover”The popover lists comment cards for the active session, with a session bar for switching between sessions. Move focus between cards with the up and down arrow keys.
The header has five buttons:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Search | Search across all sessions by quoted text, comment text, source app, or session name |
| History (clock icon) | Open deleted-comment history |
| New quick note | Open the composer for a standalone note |
| Screenshot comment | Start a screen region capture |
| Crit Mode (mic icon) | Record spoken feedback (macOS 26 or later only) |
The footer holds session-wide actions:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Copy All | Copy every comment in the session to the clipboard |
| MCP | Show MCP (Model Context Protocol) status and a sample agent prompt |
| Resolve All | Mark every comment in the session resolved, after confirmation |
| Delete All | Delete every comment in the session, after confirmation |
| Export to file | Save the session’s comments to a file |
| Settings | Open the Settings window |
The MCP button carries a status dot: green means an agent can read your comments, orange means a dependency is missing (click for details), red means MCP is not connected. See agent integrations.
