XCommander 0.1.0-alpha.4

A new look: the hat now sits over two crossed sabres that form the X.

Still an early alpha. Expect rough edges and bugs. If something breaks, use Report a Bug… in the menu bar; it fills in your versions for you.

What's new

• New app icon, menu bar icon and disk image icon. The ⌘ on the hat is bigger, so the menu bar icon is easier to read.

Coming from 0.1.0-alpha.3? Choose Check for Updates… in the menu bar, or wait for the daily check. From 0.1.0-alpha.1? Download this one by hand; that build can't update itself.

Install

1. Download XCommander.dmg below and drag XCommander into Applications.
2. Open it, and grant Accessibility when asked (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility). XCommander needs it to read Xcode's menus and press them for you.
3. In Xcode, press ⌥↩ (Option-Return) and the which-key panel shows what comes next.

Needs: Xcode 27 or later, macOS 14 or later.
Optional: ripgrep (brew install ripgrep) for project-wide search with a preview.

Privacy

XCommander only acts while Xcode is in front. Its one network request is the daily update check, which reads a feed on xcommander.dev and sends nothing about you.
