Loadout 0.6.3

Loadout is a Mac app that shows what your coding assistants load — skills, commands, subagents, plugins and MCP servers — with how often each one actually fires.

Install: brew install --cask migsilva89/loadout/loadout, or download Loadout-0.6.3.dmg, drag Loadout to Applications, open it. Installed copies update themselves.

Changed

• Each tab keeps its own filter. Filter Skills to Personal, look at Commands, come back, and Skills is still on Personal. Thanks to @g7xu for the suggestion (#17).
• Sparkle, the framework that installs updates, is now 2.10.0 (#14).

Loadout 0.6.2

Loadout is a Mac app that shows what your coding assistants load — skills, commands, subagents, plugins and MCP servers — with how often each one actually fires.

Install: download Loadout-0.6.2.dmg, drag Loadout to Applications, open it. Installed copies update themselves.

Fixed

• The "Something went wrong … plugin.json couldn't be opened" dialog that kept coming back. Codex installs connector plugins such as Slack and Google Calendar without a plugin.json, because they have no skills — only their MCP server. Loadout now lists them with no skills and no dialog, and shows a diagnostic once per session rather than on every reload. Thanks to @mkhalila for the report (#12).

Loadout 0.6.1

Loadout is a Mac app that shows what your coding assistants load — skills, commands, subagents, plugins and MCP servers — with how often each one actually fires.

Install: download Loadout-0.6.1.dmg, drag Loadout to Applications, open it. Installed copies update themselves.

What's new

• A small cup in the title bar, after the tabs, and a line at the end of Settings › Help. Loadout is free and stays free; if it saves you time, that is where to buy me a coffee. Nothing else changed since 0.6.0.

Loadout 0.6.0

Loadout is a Mac app that shows what your coding assistants are actually loaded with — skills, commands, subagents, MCP servers — and how much of it you really use.

Install: download Loadout-0.6.0.dmg, open it, drag Loadout to Applications. Signed and notarised, so it opens without a warning. Copies already installed update themselves.

What's new

• Antigravity CLI is in. Once agy has run on your Mac, it shows up as an assistant: its skills sit beside Claude's and Codex's, you can share a skill into it with one click, and its usage is counted from its own conversation history. Ask can run agy too. (#12)
• MCP servers from every assistant. The MCP tab now lists Claude Code's, Codex's and Antigravity's servers in one place, each marked with the assistant it belongs to, and you can filter the list to one of them. Switching a server off uses that assistant's own mechanism, so nothing is ever written into another assistant's settings.

Full details in the changelog.

Loadout 0.5.0

Loadout is a native Mac app for managing the skills, commands, plugins and MCP servers your coding assistants load.

Download Loadout-0.5.0.dmg, open it, and drag Loadout into Applications. This release supports Apple silicon and Intel Macs and is signed and notarized. Existing installations can update from Loadout.

What's new

• Chat about your setup from any tab. Chat now lives beside New skill and stays with you as you browse.
• Choose the skills in the conversation. Ask attaches a skill to the same chat. Add several, remove attachments, or start a new conversation without files. Earlier chats remain in History.
• Review changes across skills. Accept or reject each change, then save accepted changes to their original files with backups. Changing the selected row never changes where edits are saved. Files edited elsewhere require a new review, and plugin files remain read-only.

Full changelog

Loadout 0.4.1

Loadout is a Mac app for viewing and managing the skills and plugins your coding assistants load.

This update fixes missing Codex plugins and their skills. Local plugin switches now use Codex's own configuration, and plugins with the same name in Claude and Codex stay independent.

Turning a plugin off shows all its skills as off. Turning it back on restores your individual choices, including after plugin updates. Changes made outside Loadout refresh the list automatically.

Codex plugin support requires a Codex version with the local plugin inventory protocol. Workspace-managed plugin switches remain in Codex.

Install: download Loadout-0.4.1.dmg, open it, and drag Loadout into Applications. Requires macOS 15 or later; supports Apple silicon and Intel. Existing installations can update in the app.

Full changelog

Loadout 0.4.0

Loadout is a Mac app that shows you every skill, command, subagent and MCP server your coding assistants have installed — and lets you turn each one on or off without editing a file.

Install: download Loadout-0.4.0.dmg, open it, drag Loadout to Applications. Signed and notarised by Apple, so it opens without a trip through System Settings. Already have it? It will offer this update itself.

What's new

It runs on Intel Macs. Until now the release was built on an Apple silicon machine and simply would not open on an Intel one. This is one download that runs on both. (#10)

Sort and filter by any frontmatter key. Whatever a file happens to set — team, model, allowed-tools, a field your own assistant invented — shows up on its own in the filter and sort menus, and the key you pick becomes a column on every row. Nothing is hard-coded, so a Claude-only field does not turn up on a Codex skill. (#3, suggested by u/CacheInvalidation)

An On filter, beside the Off one. Every kind can now be narrowed to what is actually loaded right now, instead of only to what is not.

A plugin you turn off now turns off what it ships. Its skills, commands and subagents used to keep their rows lit and their switches on, so the list claimed your assistant was loading things it was not. They stay listed — that is where you put them back from — but they read as off.

Also fixed: two skills with the same name no longer leave a blank row in the list, and disabling a shared skill twice in quick succession no longer fails with "an item with the same name already exists".

Full list in the changelog.

Loadout 0.3.5

Loadout is a Mac app that shows every skill, command, subagent and MCP server your coding assistants have — yours and each repository's — and how much each one actually gets used.

Install: download the DMG, open it, drag Loadout to Applications. Signed and notarised, so it opens without a detour through System Settings. Already have it? The app updates itself.

What's new

• Point Loadout at the repository you work in and it finds it. Choosing your own project folder answered "no repositories found in here": the folder you picked was only ever a place to look inside, and the .git that proves it is a repository is hidden, so you couldn't pick that either. A chosen folder under git is now that project. A folder with only a .claude in it still means look inside — that's a folder of projects with house instructions at the top — and counts as a project only when nothing turns up under it.

Loadout 0.3.4

Loadout shows you every skill, command, subagent and MCP server your AI assistants have on this Mac — with how often each one is actually used — and lets you edit, disable or share them between assistants.

Install: download Loadout-0.3.4.dmg, open it, drag Loadout to Applications. Signed and notarised by Apple, so it opens with no warning. Or brew install --cask migsilva89/loadout/loadout. If you are on 0.3.3 already, the app offers this one to you itself.

The update dialog now says what changed. 0.3.3 could install a new version but announced it with an empty page, so pressing Install meant not knowing what you were about to get. The feed now carries that version's own changelog section, styled to be read in the small window it appears in and following your Mac's light or dark appearance. A release with nothing written about it is refused rather than published with an empty page.

The self-check writes English names. Running it created a skill called auto-teste and a command called auto-comando, described in Portuguese, on the disk of whoever ran it. They are now self-check-skill and self-check-command.

Loadout-0.3.4-update.dmg is the same image under a second name — it is what installed copies download, so the counters can tell an update apart from a first install. appcast.xml is the signed feed. You want the first file.

Loadout 0.3.3

Loadout shows you every skill, command, subagent and MCP server your AI assistants have on this Mac — with how often each one is actually used — and lets you edit, disable or share them between assistants.

Install: download Loadout-0.3.3.dmg, open it, drag Loadout to Applications. Signed and notarised by Apple, so it opens with no warning. Or brew install --cask migsilva89/loadout/loadout.

This is the last version you install by hand. From here Loadout updates itself: it fetches the new version, checks its signature and installs it, and reopens on the new one. It asks first — nothing is replaced without you saying yes — and it checks about once a day. Settings › Updates holds the switch, the version you are running, when it last looked, and a button to check on the spot.

An update is only accepted if it was signed with the key the running copy was built with, and it is verified before it is unpacked, so a download tampered with in transit is refused rather than installed. Nothing about your machine is sent when it checks.

Loadout-0.3.3-update.dmg is the same image under a second name — it is what installed copies download, so the counters can tell an update apart from a first install. appcast.xml is the signed feed. You want the first file.
