CrossHair
Press a shortcut, get a fullscreen crosshair that follows the mouse. Press another, get a circular pixel loupe with a built-in target reticle. Stays out of the way the rest of the time.

What it does
Fullscreen crosshair
⌘⌥X drops a thin pair of black lines crossing at the mouse. Follows the cursor across the screen. Esc dismisses. Lines stay 1px no matter how big your display is — surgical, not decorative.
Pixel loupe
⌘⌥L opens a circular zoomed view centered on the cursor. While it's up: 1/2 shrink and grow the glass, ‹/› zoom out and in. Settings persist between sessions.
Quiet by default
Lives in the menu bar — or hide the icon entirely and run on hotkey alone. The menu shows the current shortcuts in native macOS glyphs and tracks rebinds. Tiny binary, instant launch, no background services.
