A utility-heavy week: tools for switching DNS, toggling per-monitor HDR, and searching screenshots by their text, plus a 30-plus-command design-and-text toolbelt and a new Arc-style command bar for the Orion browser.

Productivity

DNS Quick Change — by @nwhistler

Switch DNS servers from Raycast: pick from presets, save your own, or reset to your DHCP-assigned DNS in one step. Applies changes via AppleScript and prompts for your password when modifying network settings.

Delphi Tools — by @abeldebruijn

Run 30-plus local design and text utilities from the delphitools CLI without leaving Raycast — encode/decode, hashing, contrast checks, color-palette and Tailwind-shade generation, QR and barcode generators, image conversion, favicon and social-media croppers, SVG optimization, and more. Requires installing delphitools-cli (cargo install delphitools-cli); all processing runs locally.

Fox Hop — by @kud

Focus a specific Firefox tab from Raycast: search your saved tab targets by name, title, or match pattern and jump straight to that tab with Firefox brought to the foreground. Can also generate one Raycast script command per target so each gets its own bindable hotkey. Requires the companion foxhop CLI and browser extension.

Macshot — by @Tien-Lam

Exposes the macshot screenshot and screen-recording utility's URL scheme as standalone Raycast commands — capture an area, full screen, OCR, or a scrolling capture; start and stop recordings; open history or settings. It dismisses Raycast before firing so the Raycast window isn't captured, and launches macshot first if it isn't already running.

Oh-Shoot — by @Nico-Pergande

Search the screenshots taken by the oh-shoot macOS app by the OCR text recognized inside them, then open a match in the oh-shoot gallery, in Preview, or in Finder — or copy the image or its text. Reads the app's local index directly, read-only, with no network calls.

Sanity Icons — by @Spratch

Browse, copy, and download icons from Sanity Icons, the open-source icon set used in Sanity Studio. Forked from the Tabler Icons extension.

HDR Toggle — by @abdullah-shabib

Per-monitor HDR control on Windows. Windows' built-in shortcut toggles HDR on every display at once; this lists each HDR-capable monitor and flips them individually, and lets you bind specific monitors to dedicated hotkeys. It drives a readable PowerShell helper that calls the Windows DisplayConfig API — no admin rights or bundled binaries.

Updates to existing productivity extensions:

• Orion: new Arc-style Command Bar — a unified palette that searches open tabs, bookmarks, reading list, history, and the web from one command, with results opening in the Orion browser rather than your default.
• Google Calendar: events can now be assigned colors.
• Coffee: the keep-awake menu-bar dropdown gained duration presets and a picker.
• Password Generator: new Copy Random Password command.
• Cling: added a copy-file action to the fuzzy file-search results.

Worth a Look

ROM Launcher — by @Glct26

Browse your local ROM library and launch games through your preferred emulator, with boxart and metadata auto-fetched from the Libretro databases, play-time stats, and RetroAchievements integration (unlocked achievements, completion progress, hardcore status). Works on macOS and Windows.

Cortisol Meter — by @Smexey

A manual stress-level tracker: tag your current state as low, medium, or high with quick commands and see it as an icon-only menu-bar item. It doesn't measure anything biological — it's a self-logged indicator.

Manglish Keyboard — by @mdsherinoff

Type Malayalam by spelling words phonetically in English — "namaskaram" becomes നമസ്കാരം — and copy the script out.

FRC Programming — by @helloGithub326

A toolkit for FIRST Robotics Competition programmers: search WPILib's Java and C++ API docs, jump to the status-light reference, and convert common FRC units (velocity, angular velocity, torque, force).

The Matrix — by @clins1994

A novelty extension: take the blue pill to enter the Matrix, the red pill to exit. (Sound on.)

Wrappers for Other Services

Wise Lens — by @jorgetoh

Wise is the international money-transfer and multi-currency account service (formerly TransferWise); this extension reads its API to show your per-currency balances, what you've spent this month and over the last 30 days, each balance's worth in other currencies, and recent transactions with search and filters — all on a read-only API key.

Techmeme — by @Tien-Lam

A reader for Techmeme, the curated technology-news aggregator that clusters the day's biggest stories with their related coverage. Browse the front page or the reverse-chronological River, search locally, and open stories or their Techmeme permalinks — no account required.

Bouncer Email Verifier — by @ekamran

Connects Raycast to Bouncer, an email-verification and deliverability service. Enter an address and get back the deliverability verdict, score, provider, domain, reason, and mailbox signals; bring your own Bouncer API key.

DinoPass — by @joecampo

Built on DinoPass, a free generator of simple, memorable passwords originally aimed at school children. Two commands fetch either a pronounceable password (e.g. flyingLion42) or a strong one with symbols, copying it straight to the clipboard — no account or API key.

Update:

• Tempo: worklogs can now have their estimated remaining duration set. Tempo is a time-tracking app for Jira.
