The two caption surfaces, the SECONDS-vs-MILLISECONDS unit trap, ids,-  positions, and the adom-cli / HTTP commands all live in hd-captions-  (adom/hd-bootstrap) and are platform-neutral; THIS skill carries only the one macOS-  difference: the full-DESKTOP overlay (adom-desktop desktop_caption) is a Win32-  click-through window and is NOT implemented on macOS yet (the non-Windows build is a-  stub). The workspace caption (adom-cli hydrogen caption) works the same on macOS.-  Mirror of hd-captions-windows. Trigger words — caption macos, desktop_caption macos,-  desktop overlay mac, screen overlay mac, caption not showing mac, click-through caption mac.------# hd-captions (macOS) — only the desktop overlay differs--This is the **macOS half** of `hd-captions`, and it is deliberately short: **almost-nothing about captions is macOS-specific.** The two surfaces, the units (workspace =-SECONDS, desktop overlay = MILLISECONDS), positions/ids/sizes, the `adom-cli hydrogen-caption` command and the raw-HTTP `.../current/caption` fallback all live in the generic-**hd-captions** skill and behave identically here — read that first. There is exactly-**one** macOS-distinct fact, below.--## (1) Workspace caption — fully platform-neutral on macOS--`adom-cli hydrogen caption show/hide` renders **inside the HD workspace webview** via the-workspace-events server → SSE → the frontend `captionStore`. That path has no host-native-code, so it works on macOS exactly as documented in hd-captions (same SECONDS unit, 30s-default / 300s cap, newest-wins, the HTTP fallback). **This is your default on a Mac.**--## (2) ⚠️ Desktop overlay — NOT implemented on macOS--`adom-desktop desktop_caption` (the always-on-top, click-through, whole-screen overlay)-is **Windows-only**. The implementation in `src-tauri/crates/hd-app/src/caption.rs` is a-Win32 layered-window stack (`WS_EX_LAYERED | WS_EX_TOPMOST | WS_EX_TRANSPARENT` popups,-`EnumWindows`-keyed by id) gated entirely behind `#[cfg(windows)]`. The non-Windows-`show_caption_window` is a **stub** that logs *"Caption overlay is only supported on-Windows"* and returns `created=false`. So on macOS:--- `adom-desktop desktop_caption` will fail to actually paint a desktop overlay (the-  command returns, but `visible:false` / no window appears). **Do NOT rely on it for a-  full-screen recording on macOS** — there is no native overlay layer yet.-- For a whole-desktop / other-app (KiCad, Fusion, browser) recording on macOS, there is-  currently **no on-screen caption** equivalent. Caption the **HD workspace** instead-  (surface 1), or narrate via TTS — don't claim a desktop overlay you can't render.--This is an honest gap, not a different mechanism: HD has **no macOS-native desktop-caption overlay** at this time. (The `caption` capability that `adom-desktop status`-advertises reflects the Windows host overlay; treat it as Windows-only until a macOS-overlay ships.)--## NOT here (lives in the Windows companion)--The Win32 always-on-top click-through layered-window implementation — `caption.rs`'s-`#[cfg(windows)]` `show_caption_window` / `destroy_captions`, the `AdomCaptionOverlay`-window class, and the id-as-window-title routing that backs `adom-desktop-desktop_caption` — is the **Windows** delivery; see `hd-captions-windows`.
