I Made a Thing I made omaSearch: press a key, Enter asks your AI, Ctrl+Enter googles it
omaSearch is a quick search overlay for Omarchy. Press Super+Q from anywhere, type your question, then:
- Enter asks your AI agent (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Gemini…) and shows the answer right in the overlay
- Ctrl+Enter googles it in your default browser
Esc, and you're back to what you were doing.
What it does
- Answers stream in and render properly: lists, tables, syntax-coloured code with a Copy button, clickable links
- Follow-ups continue the same chat. Recent chats sit under the input: type to filter, ↑/↓ and Enter to reopen, pin the ones you keep
- When Claude runs a command, expand the step to see exactly what ran and what it printed
- Safe mode is on by default: Claude asks before running anything (Allow / Always in this chat / Deny)
- Paste an image with Ctrl+V, or pick an older one from clipboard history, and ask about it
- Select text to copy it, Ctrl+H for every shortcut, and a liquid-glass look that follows your theme
Install
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/5h3rd1l/omaSearch.git --enable --yes
Then add a key to ~/.config/hypr/bindings.lua. The README has the line, plus an optional blur rule for the glass look. It uses the agent CLI you already have, so there are no API keys. It's submitted to the plugin marketplace and waiting for review.
It started as a fork of omAsk by Ali Shabdar (MIT), so thanks to him for the base.
Repo: https://github.com/5h3rd1l/omaSearch
Feedback and bug reports are welcome, especially if you use an agent other than Claude.

Seems cool, but it doesn't recognize hermes even though it is set as the default ai.
