Pomosh keeps a Pomodoro session visible in the macOS menu bar so you can follow work and break cycles without reopening the app. Set the duration and number of cycles, then use notifications, sounds, the countdown, or a global shortcut to track progress. You can pause the timer and skip or restart the current round when plans change.

Truck Nav provides an external GPS for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. A Windows desktop component reads live game telemetry, while an Android app or any browser on the local network displays position and routing on a phone, tablet, or second monitor. The core navigation works, but the project is still labeled an alpha or demo and may lag on older devices. It supports the base games and all DLC through version 1.58, but not map mods such as ProMods, and some company-name mods can break routing.

Yagua brings common image-processing jobs into a local desktop interface for designers, photographers, and web developers. It can batch-compress and convert files, resize or crop them, remove backgrounds, run OCR, vectorize images, and edit EXIF data without relying on a subscription web service. Windows and Linux are the main supported platforms, macOS remains experimental, and each module has its own practical batch limit.

Purge helps reclaim Mac storage by scanning application caches, system junk, and developer artifacts from tools such as Xcode, Homebrew, npm, Docker, and project build folders. A separate large-file view searches common personal folders with size, age, type, Quick Look, and Finder controls. Deletions go to the Trash by default rather than being permanently erased.

Refloow Photo Studio is a cross-platform desktop editor for quick photo work without an account or cloud upload. Users can remove backgrounds, crop and mirror images, adjust color, apply built-in filters, add text, and compose layers while keeping the files and editing process on their own machine.

OpenAver is a graphical collection manager for Windows and Apple Silicon Macs that gathers JAV metadata, artwork, tags, and performer information from multiple sources. Users can browse a local library through cover walls and filters, then generate NFO, poster, and fanart files for Jellyfin, Emby, or Kodi. A local REST API also supports multi-step catalog operations by AI agents. Data stays in a local SQLite database; files are moved or renamed only during explicit organization actions, and the project states that source videos are not deleted.

qapyq is a desktop media curator for preparing large image and video datasets used in LoRA and diffusion workflows. It combines browsing, filtering, caption and tag editing, cropping, scaling, masking, statistics, and batch operations, with optional local or SSH-based model inference. Users can install only the graphical and media-processing components when AI assistance is unnecessary. It requires Python 3.10 or later, and video export additionally depends on FFmpeg.

Termul treats each project as a persistent desktop workspace instead of a loose set of terminal tabs. You can combine multiple shells, split panes, embedded browser tabs, and code or Markdown editors, then restore sessions, layouts, and snapshots when you return. The application is packaged for Windows, macOS, and Linux and also supports SSH-oriented workflows with credentials stored through the operating system keychain. It is designed for developers who regularly switch among several projects and want their working context kept together.

Firelink is a cross-platform desktop download manager for segmented transfers, media extraction, persistent queues, scheduling, speed rules, and organized file placement. Its companion extension can hand browser downloads, links, selected text, or detected media to the desktop app for review, and release bundles include the required engines. Builds are available for macOS, Windows, and Linux, but the current macOS package is not notarized and Windows packages are unsigned, so first launch may trigger security warnings.

Inline Studio is a cross-platform desktop app for organizing an AI film on a free-form node canvas, from moodboards and generated shots to trimming and final assembly. Every render is preserved as a non-destructive take, and frames can feed downstream nodes for repeatable iteration. Generation uses either your own reachable ComfyUI instance or hosted fal models with your own key; current installers are unsigned.

Codex Usage Tracker reads the JSONL logs already stored on your machine, indexes aggregate call, thread, cache, and supporting evidence into SQLite, and exposes the results through a localhost dashboard, CLI, and MCP tools. You can filter costly or low-cache calls, inspect thread-level drain, and ask Codex to explain usage patterns. Indexed content remains local, while generated reports and support bundles omit it by default. The project is independent and not affiliated with OpenAI.

Pawn Appétit lets players import games from Lichess, Chess.com, or PGN files, analyze positions with Stockfish or other UCI engines, and practice opening repertoires with spaced repetition. Prebuilt releases are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and its optional telemetry can be disabled in settings.

Frigoligo is a cross-platform wallabag client for reading and synchronizing saved articles on Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, and Windows. Its offline-first design keeps reading available without a network connection and synchronizes changes when possible. Deep links and operating-system integrations let external workflows open a particular article, save a new URL, or navigate to app actions. Deep-link support is available on every listed platform except Linux. The app is a client rather than a standalone read-later service, so it requires access to a wallabag server.

MacNewFile adds a Windows-style “new file” action to Finder and the macOS desktop. From the context menu, users can create text, Markdown, Microsoft Office, or Apple iWork documents, copy the current folder path, or open a terminal there. The standard build can be installed through Homebrew or a release download, while the configurable settings version requires building the app in Xcode. FinderSync no longer works inside iCloud directories, and the non-notarized installation may require additional macOS security approval.

Peace Equalizer APO is a community-maintained graphical interface for Equalizer APO on Windows 10 and 11. It applies system-wide parametric equalization to games, music, video, and calls, with preamp and bass controls, headphone calibration, presets, VST support, and a real-time response graph. It is not an official release from the original Peace or Equalizer APO developers, and Equalizer APO must be installed first from a trusted source.

Idaesbasic keeps project-management data as local files, allowing to-do lists, kanban boards, and calendars to live beside the code or assets they describe. A user adds a project folder, creates the relevant task files within it, and can then back up or version those files with the rest of the project. The currently implemented tools are to-do lists, kanban, and calendar; whiteboards, chat, and several other modules remain plans. Windows and Linux have documented ways to run it, while macOS users must compile the application themselves.

Rustman is a native desktop API client that uses a local Rust HTTP engine instead of a webview, avoiding browser CORS restrictions. It supports common authentication methods, environment variables, file uploads, WebSocket sessions, editable request and response bodies, and locally stored collections and history. The app needs no account and sends no telemetry, with builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Its pre- and post-request script interface exists, but the runner is still a work in progress.

Codex Mate launches the Codex desktop app through an external companion and adds local controls for provider modes, session deletion, undo, Markdown export, and moving conversations between projects. It can also diagnose and repair the visibility of existing local history after account, model, or provider changes. Windows and macOS packages are available, and it does not modify the installed Codex app bundle.
