About alt-tabr

alt-tabr is a native window switcher for macOS 13 and later, written entirely in Rust and running on both Apple silicon and Intel Macs. It hooks into the familiar Command Tab shortcut but shows every open window rather than just apps, and it restores minimised windows when they are selected. Three visual themes are offered: one that hangs from the camera notch, a carousel and a Liquid Glass style. The app needs only the Accessibility permission, never screen recording, and collects no analytics. In the maker's own benchmarks against AltTab, it used far less memory, CPU time and energy. It sells for a 9 USD launch price, normally 29 USD, with lifetime updates.

About Statey

Shared, structured state across Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT. Validated records, versioned schema, every change attributed to the human or agent that made it. MCP-native, hosted, free to start. Query it next week from Cursor and the same record answers, even if an agent changed it in between, because every change is attributed. One hosted database, every MCP client, no server to run. Agent-driven work needs a data layer built for it. Each one trades away something a real database was always better at:.
