Global Watcher is a local "Time Machine" for Windows desktop. It monitors your selected folders in real-time and instantly saves file versions whenever a change happens. Why do you need this? ⚡️ AI Protection: If an AI coding agent hallucinates and overwrites your code, you can restore everything in a single click. ⚡️ For Non-Git Users: Writers, designers, and students get powerful version control without touching the terminal or learning complex commands. ⚡️ Zero Risk: Everything is stored 100%
Hi everyone! 👋
I built Global Watcher because even experienced developers (let alone writers, researchers, or students) sometimes lose hours of work due to one simple mistake, an accidental overwrite, or a rogue AI agent modifying the wrong files.
While Git is great for protecting your intentional "checkpoints", Global Watcher protects the messy reality in between those checkpoints. It’s a lightweight, fully local application that runs quietly in the background and gives your files a memory.
You can preview, compare differences, and restore your work instantly without any command-line friction.
I'd love to hear your feedback and answer any questions you might have!
