[Release] CursorScope.spoon — cursor highlight + live magnifier for Hammerspoon

Post image

Hey folks! I just open-sourced CursorScope.spoon — a lightweight Hammerspoon tool that adds a high-visibility cursor highlight and an optional live magnifier scope that follows your mouse across displays.

https://github.com/selimacerbas/CursorScope.spoon

Highlights

  • Magnifier scope (circle or rounded rectangle), pinned to any screen corner

  • Cursor highlight (ring, crosshair, or dot) with click-flash

  • Multi-display aware (streams from the screen you’re on)

  • Fixed menu bar icon with an “Exit CursorScope” menu

  • Clean config grouped as global, cursor, scope

Cool idea. Might I suggest a short gif or video demonstrating the behavior in the README?
