[Bug] Completion Suggestion hides when attempting to take a screenshot (maybe not bug?)

[jkrauska]

Category

Check all that apply:

• Keystroke / Input (Tab not working, keystrokes swallowed, input blocked)
• App Compatibility (bug only in a specific app: Word, Outlook, Mail, browser, etc.)
• Performance / Crash (slow response, hang, or crash)

Summary

When using cmd-shift-4 or cmd-shift3 to take a screenshot, the CoTabby suggestion does not appear.

Environment

• macOS version: 26.5
• Host app: Tested in Obsidian and Chrome and XCode -- seems to be general issue
• Cotabby engine: Open Source
• Model name (if Open Source): tabby1-base
• Accessibility permission granted: yes
• Input Monitoring permission granted: yes
• Screen Recording permission granted: yes

Steps to reproduce

1. Get to the point where CoTabby presents a suggestion
2. Try to take a screenshot (eg. to report a bug to CoTabby-- :) )
3. The suggestion will dissapear.

Note: This may be a desired behavior. However it makes it very hard to screenshot bugs.

Expected behavior

Expecting CoTabby suggestion to remain in place.

Actual behavior

CoTabby text dissapears.
