Feature deep dive

Everything important is captured before the flow disappears.

Bug Pocket builds a complete local record (context, evidence, and report) without requiring a second tool or a cloud account.

Frictionless Bug Capture

A fast capture form, not a second job.

Open Quick Capture with Ctrl+Alt+P from anywhere on Windows. Fill in your Application, Module, Environment, User Role, and a short bug note. Use keyboard shortcuts and preset slots to pre-fill repeated context in one keystroke.

Global shortcut opens the panel from any app.
Application, Module, Environment captured as structured context.
3 preset slots fill all fields with one shortcut.

Visual Evidence, Always Local

Annotate and attach screenshots without leaving capture.

Press Ctrl+Alt+S or click the Screenshot button to freeze the screen and drag-select a region. Arrow, Freehand, Text, and Mask annotation tools let you mark up the image before attaching. Annotations create a new non-destructive child file - originals are never overwritten.

Drag-select a region or press Alt+C for full screen.
Arrow, Freehand, Text, and Mask annotation tools.
Non-destructive: originals always preserved.

Dashboard & Filters

Review, filter, and prioritize your captures.

The Main Dashboard shows all your entries in a clean 5-column table: Entry, Context, State, Created, and Attachments. Collapsible filters let you slice by Entry Type, Application, Module, Environment, Status, Severity, and Sync state. Click any attachment icon to open a full Spotlight preview.

AI Triage - BYOK

Turn a raw note into a structured bug report.

Configure your own API key (OpenAI, Grok, OpenRouter, Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible local model) in Settings > AI Processing. On any Bug Details page, click AI Triage to send the note and screenshot to your provider. The result auto-populates Title, Steps to Reproduce, Expected Result, and Actual Result, and saves automatically. You can still review and click Save for extra comfort.

Works with OpenAI, Grok, OpenRouter, Gemini, or local models.
API key encrypted locally - never stored in plain text.
Populates structured fields and saves automatically.
