Everything about Stackbar.
New here? Start with Getting started. Coming from Raycast? There's a switching guide.
Use Stackbar
Install it, make the palette yours and pick your plugins.
Getting started
Install Stackbar, pick your hotkey and find your way around in five minutes.
The palette
Search apps, files, sums and every plugin's commands from one hotkey, and make it yours with aliases, hotkeys and favourites.
Plugins and the Store
Install plugins from the signed store, approve what they can reach, and keep them up to date.
Updates and moving Macs
How Stackbar updates itself, and how to take your setup to another Mac or bring it from Raycast.
Permissions
Which macOS permissions Stackbar asks for, which feature needs each one, and how to give or take it back.
Privacy and safety
What Stackbar and its plugins can reach, what it sends, and how to report a problem.
Build plugins
One Swift file, checked without the app, by you or your agent.
Your first plugin
Write, build and check a Stackbar plugin in one Swift file, then put it in your menu bar and palette.
Plugin reference
The full Stackbar plugin authoring reference: views, commands, triggers, capabilities, host services and previews. The same text agents read as llms.txt.
Agents and MCP
Let Claude Code and other MCP clients use your plugins' tools, and let them write plugins for you.
