Jot, 2 days after launch: 3 fixes, a Raycast extension, and the bugs I shipped

Hey makers Jot 2.0 launched here on Wednesday. Here's what shipped since, the embarrassing bits included.

2.0.1

  • jot add takes --tag, --section and --pin, and list, search and add take --json

  • the MCP add_jot tool can attach images and pin a jot

  • the DMG itself is notarized now, not only the app inside it. Someone on X called it an "unverified build", and they had a point

2.0.2

Jot 2.0 - Select text, tap Shift twice, it's a markdown file

Jot is a capture inbox for macOS. Select anything, tap Shift twice, and it becomes a markdown file in a folder you own. Hold fn to dictate into any app. Ctrl+Opt+A grabs a region of the screen to mark up. Jot 2.0 is rewritten in Rust, off Electron: 675 MB down to 43 MB on Apple silicon. No account, no sync. Speech runs on your Mac with 59 local models. A CLI and an MCP server let Claude Code, Codex and Cursor read, search and tag your notes. One-time license.
