› Alfred Workflow

Since v2025.2, BarCuts has an official Alfred workflow, "BarCuts Companion", so you can access your BarCuts-tagged workflows right from your favourite launcher.

What it does

The workflow returns the same list of workflows as the BarCuts menu: Both the workflows tagged for the currently active application and the global (always-available) workflows.

Here's an example showing the results for my currently active app, Xcode – one app-tagged workflow, and the single global workflow I've set up:

Selecting a workflow and hitting ↵ will run it, while pressing ⇧↵ will open it in the Shortcuts editor.

Installation

The extension can be downloaded from our website. Double-click the downloaded BarCuts_Companion.alfredworkflow file to start the installation process in the Alfred app.

BarCuts must be running for the Companion to work.

Configuration

The workflow can be configured in Alfred Preferences → Workflows → BarCuts Companion. There, you can define a keyword or a hotkey for bringing it up.
