What is SuperCmd?

SuperCmd is an open-source productivity launcher for macOS that combines the power of Raycast extensions with AI-native features like voice dictation, text-to-speech, and memory-aware AI assistance. Built with Electron, React, and TypeScript, SuperCmd provides a fully compatible Raycast extension runtime while remaining community-driven and free.

Key Features

SuperCmd provides a complete runtime shim for @raycast/api and @raycast/utils, allowing you to run existing Raycast extensions without modification.What’s supported:
  • All core components (List, Detail, Form, Grid, ActionPanel)
  • Navigation and actions
  • Clipboard, LocalStorage, and Cache APIs
  • AI integration with AI.ask() and useAI()
  • OAuth flows
  • All utility hooks from @raycast/utils
Extensions are bundled with esbuild and executed in an isolated runtime that shares React context with the host app.
Hold to speak, release to type — SuperCmd includes native speech-to-text powered by macOS Speech Recognition API and optional ElevenLabs integration.Perfect for:
  • Dictating long messages
  • Hands-free command input
  • Fast note-taking
Voice features require Microphone and Input Monitoring permissions on first use.
Select any text and have SuperCmd read it aloud using:
  • Edge TTS (built-in, no API key required)
  • ElevenLabs (premium voices with natural intonation)
Includes pause, resume, and speed controls in a sleek overlay window.
SuperCmd integrates with Supermemory to provide AI responses that remember context from your previous conversations and documents.Supported AI providers:
  • OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini)
  • Anthropic (Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Claude 3 Opus)
  • Ollama (local models like Llama 3, Mistral)
All AI features respect your privacy — your API keys stay local in ~/Library/Application Support/SuperCmd/settings.json.
Control app windows with Swift-powered native bindings:
  • Tile windows to halves, quarters, or thirds
  • Center, maximize, or minimize windows
  • Move windows between displays
  • Custom window size presets
Requires Accessibility permission for AXIsProcessTrusted() checks.
Never lose copied content again. SuperCmd maintains a searchable history of everything you copy, with support for:
  • Text
  • Images
  • Files
  • Rich content
Access your clipboard history instantly from the launcher.
Create reusable text snippets with keyword triggers. Type the keyword, and SuperCmd automatically expands it to the full text.Perfect for:
  • Email templates
  • Code boilerplate
  • Frequently used phrases
  • Signatures and contact info

Architecture Overview

SuperCmd uses a multi-process Electron architecture with clear separation of concerns: 
src/main/        Electron main process
├── main.ts              IPC handlers, window management, global shortcuts
├── extension-runner.ts  Extension execution engine (esbuild + require shim)
├── extension-registry.ts Extension catalog, install, uninstall, update
├── ai-provider.ts       AI streaming (OpenAI / Anthropic / Ollama)
└── settings-store.ts    JSON settings persistence

src/renderer/    Electron renderer process
├── App.tsx              Root component, view routing
├── raycast-api/         @raycast/api compatibility layer
│   ├── index.tsx           Integration surface
│   ├── list-runtime.tsx    List component runtime
│   ├── form-runtime.tsx    Form component runtime
│   ├── grid-runtime.tsx    Grid component runtime
│   └── action-runtime.tsx  Action panel runtime
└── hooks/               Feature hooks (AI, voice, navigation)

src/native/      Swift native modules
├── hotkey-hold-monitor.swift  Global hotkey detection
├── speech-recognizer.swift    Speech-to-text
├── window-adjust.swift        Window management
└── snippet-expander.swift     Keystroke injection
Extensions run in isolated contexts but share the React instance with the host app for proper context and hook support.
