Substage does not run properly with local LLMs on my Mac. I used the settings to add Qween via Ollama. This model works well via the Ollama interface. However when I ask substage to do something, I get the following error message: "could not connect to the server"

Menu bar suggestion
Menu bar suggestion Hi there, This app is absolutely brilliant! Huge kudos for making it accessible, especially with VoiceOver support. I genuinely wish every developer thought this way! Quick suggestion for a future update: Please add an option in settings to hide the menu bar icon. My menu bar is jam-packed, and the usual menu bar managers are incompatible with screen readers. Thanks, Sron.

A time out control in the settings pls
It will be useful to be able to set the timeout, in some prompts lm studio is still generating tokens and substage times out and stops the request

I was about to buy but...
It appears that it only activates for Finder. Unfortunately, I use Path Finder, and also QSpace Pro. Is there any way to have it activate for those windows?

Problem with search
I am looking for all Excel files that begin with “CG” everywhere on my computer and the response is “file not found” which is super crazy since I am running this command while in a directory where I am looking at 3 files that match this criteria. What am I doing wrong?

Undo capability
This is a really tricky one because Substage uses Terminal commands under the hood, and they inherently aren’t designed to be undo-able. However, given all the work I put into Substage Predicts, I know what the before-and-after states of a command will be, and for a large subset of the commands, I could back up the files that I know Substage will touch (or their names/locations), and allow restoring their previous state. In Substage Predicts I could then make it clear when a command is undo-able or not before the user runs it.

I just purchased Substage Pro. However, its unable to do anything because it keeps saying "Enable Automation for Suybstage in System Settings". However, I have already done this multiple times and even gave Substage permissions in Automation and Accessibility. How do I get this app to work?

BUG
¡Hola! I have tried the app, and I love it, but it stopped working. I don't know what's wrong. I have set all the permissions and everything, but it's not giving me the taskbar at the bottom, not even with the command or the shortcuts. I don't know what to do. Can somebody help me, please?

Add OpenRouter as AI Provider
Please add support for OpenRouter as an AI provider. OpenRouter allows access to multiple AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, etc.) using a single API key, with more flexible model selection and better cost control. Expected features: OpenRouter API key input Model selection from OpenRouter Support for chat and summarization Optional model fallback Thank you 🙏

Add an option to use the Apple Inteligence Foundation model
This program is macOS only, and does support local LLM providers, however this requires set up and such, but as I said this is a Mac only app, and apple did introduce the foundation models API and I’m sure Apple Inteligence while not the smarttest is, plenty fast and smart for folder and file manipulation.

it would be great for the “Substage predicts” feature to know what tools are installed, because i get such errors quite a lot.

Finder folder appears instead of preview when hitting spacebar on desktop
I have a png file on my desktop. I click on it and hit spacebar to see a preview of it like usual but instead of the preview showing it opens up a finder folder of my main account folder under “Users”. I changed the shortcut but that didn’t seem to have anything to do with it. I’m on an apple M1 2020 running 15.4.1

Automated Icon/Folder/Album/Source “File Image” Creation
Suggestion: Add options to change an icon image for specific file types. These changes should be made automatically from the file source context, such as a new personalized Icon, Folder, Album, Playlist Album Cover all based off the file source, to create a new personal “File Image.” Reasoning: This idea came from converting YouTube videos to audio, where the image wasn’t automatically included. Since this happens occasionally, why not allow users to instantly integrate a personal touch quickly and easily?

Integration with "Default Folder X"
From a user: “It doesn’t play well with a very popular app I use (also on Setapp), Default Folder X (DFX). The critical thing is DFX’s “drawer” utility which, when enabled, pops out at the bottom of the Finder window. With Substage running the DFX drawer can’t pop out when I try to enable it.”
