Release list
Power Tools 1.8.0 — ⏎ opens in Finder, waveform fix
New
- ⏎ in Finder opens the selection (Windows-style) instead of starting a rename — files and folders alike. Return still works normally in rename and search fields. Toggle in Settings ▸ General.
Fixed
- Dictation waveform could stay stuck on the leader-hint strip on multi-channel input devices (docks/interfaces): level metering read channel 0 only; it now takes the loudest channel per slice.
- Analyzer start latency and per-utterance peak level are now logged for easier audio diagnostics.
Signed, notarized, stapled. macOS 26+, Apple Silicon.

Power Tools 1.7.0 — a real Alt-Tab, snap palette, clipboard history, quick capture
Everything since 1.0, in one drop:
Windows
- ⌘Tab like Windows Alt-Tab — window-level MRU switching with a strip of live thumbnails (up to 24 windows in rows). Hold ⌘, move with Tab or arrows, release to switch, Esc to cancel. ⇧⌘Tab walks back; ⌘` keeps stock behavior. Toggle in Settings ▸ Windows.
- Snap palette (hold hotkey + W) — Fill/halves/quarters/thirds drawn as mini window diagrams, a drag-to-sketch mini-grid, live preview outline, multi-display targeting.
- Arrow chaining — leader ← then ↑ = corner snap; cycle past the last size to unwind.
- Saved layouts — snapshot every window's position (app-anchored, exact frames); restore from palette chips (A/B/C) or manage in Settings (save/update/rename/delete).
Clipboard & capture
- Clipboard history (hold + H) — the Win+V gap: recent copies, text and images with thumbnails; pick one, it pastes and becomes the clipboard. Local SQLite; password-manager-concealed items never recorded.
- Quick Capture (hold + N, or letters you assign) — type or dictate a line, it POSTs to your own endpoints (todo apps, n8n webhooks) via per-connection JSON templates. Inline
p1/tomorrow/@contextparse into priority/due/context fields.
Dictation
- Call-safe dictation — speakers auto-mute while the key is held, restore on release; Zoom/Teams audio never lands in your transcript.
Polish
- Tabbed Settings (General · Dictation · Windows · AI · Connections · Dictionary · Permissions), Find My Mouse rework (all screens dim, slow screen-scaled sweep), fraction-cycling snap sizes.
Signed, notarized, stapled. macOS 26+, Apple Silicon.
