You type. Clyde figures out the rest.
A name, a date, a URL, a math expression. Clyde parses your input in real time and matches it to the right command.
Intent is extracted, entities are identified, and the correct receiver is selected. No menus, no disambiguation.
Calendar event created. Message sent. Reminder set. The result appears inline and Clyde gets out of your way.
Real workflows, not feature demos.
"standup" to log yesterday's wins. "calendar" to see today's meetings. "plan" to set your top 3. All before your coffee gets cold.
A Slack message says "call me." Type the number, tap call. Paste a URL, hit enter. Clyde parses it and acts. No app switching.
"gratitude" to reflect. "review" on Fridays. "money" to check spending. Structured journaling without opening a single app.
Install the Spotify user command and type "spotify." Or drop in your own JSON for Figma, Linear, Notion—any URL or deep link.
Type "(1200 * 1.08) / 12" and get the answer inline. No calculator app, no Spotlight lag. Just type and see.
"clipboard" to browse everything you've copied. Search for that URL from an hour ago. Re-copy or paste directly.
Install the kill-port user script. Type "kill 3000" and your dev server is freed. scriptReceiver shows the result inline.
The git-commit-push user script stages, commits, and pushes in one command. Type it, confirm, done.
"message Sam: running 5 min late" sends an iMessage without opening Messages.app. Stay in your editor.
"weather" for current conditions. "weather tomorrow" for the forecast. No app, no website, no location popup.
"ask claude review this architecture" opens Claude with your query pre-filled. Same for ChatGPT or Perplexity.
Write a JSON file with a name, keywords, and a target. Drop it in ~/.clyde/user-commands/. It's live in seconds.
Launchers open apps. Clyde understands what you want to do and does it.
Intent, not search
Clyde doesn't search your Mac. It understands what you want to do and routes to the right tool.
No plugins to install
Every command ships with the app. No marketplace, no dependencies, no compatibility issues.
Local-first privacy
Journal entries, notes, bookmarks, and clipboard history stay on your Mac as plain JSON files.
Natural language input
"meet with Sam tomorrow at 3pm" creates a calendar event. "remind me to call mom in 2 hours" sets a reminder.
One keystroke away
Set a global hotkey. Every command is reachable from anywhere on your Mac without touching the dock.
Extensible by design
Drop a JSON file into ~/.clyde/ and you have a new command. Shell scripts, AppleScript, Shortcuts, deep links.
Set your global hotkey and everything on this page is reachable from anywhere on your Mac.
