jacklandrin/OnlySwitch

👑 The all-in-one macOS menu bar companion: customizable controls, system monitor, AI Agent, Shortcuts, widgets, remote control, and more.

What it solves

OnlySwitch provides a centralized, customizable menu-bar interface for macOS, allowing users to quickly toggle system settings, run shortcuts, and monitor hardware performance without navigating deep into system menus.

How it works

The application acts as a hub for various system controls. It offers a library of built-in switches (e.g., Dark Mode, Hide Desktop Icons, Mute Mic) and allows users to import Apple Shortcuts or create custom "Evolution" scripts using Shell or AppleScript. It also includes an "Only Agent" feature that uses LLMs (via Ollama, OpenAI, or Gemini) to generate and execute AppleScript commands based on natural language prompts.

Who it’s for

It is designed for macOS power users who want to streamline their workflow, automate repetitive system tasks, and gain quick access to system monitoring data directly from their menu bar.

Highlights

  • Customizable Control Center: Add, remove, and reorder switches and shortcuts to fit your specific needs.
  • Natural Language Control: Use "Only Agent" to perform system tasks by typing instructions in plain English.
  • Extensible Architecture: Create custom switches and buttons using Shell or AppleScript via the Evolution feature.
  • Remote Access: Pair with the OnlyRemote app to control your Mac from an iPhone or iPad over a local network.
  • System Monitoring: View live CPU, GPU, memory, and network usage directly in the menu bar or popover interface.
