Summon

Summon is a macOS menu bar switcher for jumping between Ghostty windows.

Requires Ghostty.

Core features

• Show open Ghostty windows with current directory, tab count, and Git repository context.
• Jump to a window by click, keyboard navigation, or ⌘1–⌘9.
• Create a new Ghostty window with ⌘N or from the menu bar.
• Toggle the panel with a configurable global shortcut.
• Switch appearance and UI language from the menu bar.

Build & install (macOS)

./install.sh

Builds a host-architecture .app and installs it to ~/Applications.

Using a prebuilt download

After downloading the prebuilt app, move Summon.app to ~/Applications.

Because the app is not signed, macOS may block it the first time you open it. If that happens, clear the quarantine flag once:

xattr -cr ~/Applications/Summon.app

Alternatively, open it via Right-click → Open → Open. See Apple's guide: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/mh40616/mac.
