Reverse engineered prompt

Build me a local app called Trace that remembers what I’m doing on my computer and lets me ask it about my work later.

It should quietly watch things like the apps I use, browser tabs, file edits, terminal commands, git activity, clipboard snippets, and media playback, then save everything locally so it can be searched later. I want a simple chat overlay I can open with Alt plus X, a small desktop app for Windows, and a web dashboard that shows my recent activity and lets me search my history.

Also include a local API so other coding tools can query my context, plus an optional AI chat mode that can answer questions using my saved activity. Make it feel polished and usable, with clear setup steps, sensible defaults, and good handling for sensitive clipboard content. If you need current docs for any local services or integrations, look them up online first.
