This Week in Raycast — May 25 – May 31, 2026

Nine new extensions clear the cut this week — file-transfer and terminal utilities anchor the productivity bucket — while @mturac's Raycast 2 reliability and compatibility wave keeps rolling across roughly two dozen existing extensions.

Productivity

Croc Transfer — by @Mrkinpa

Brings the croc peer-to-peer file transfer tool into Raycast. Send a file or folder and you get a human-readable code phrase, auto-copied to your clipboard; the receiver enters it to download, with end-to-end encryption and live progress, speed, and ETA. Adds a Finder Quick Send command, transfer history with re-send, and deep links for one-click receiving. Requires croc installed (brew install croc).

Terminal Image Paste — by @IISweetHeartII

Saves the clipboard image to a temp file and types the path into the focused terminal — works in any terminal, SSH session, or TUI app. Can optionally sync the file to remote hosts over scp in the background.

UTC Workbench — by @dfrancour

Assembles timestamps from mixed formats into a single timeline normalized to UTC. Label and annotate events, attach URLs, save sessions, and export to CSV, Markdown, or JSON — built for reconstructing incident or troubleshooting timelines.

e18e Module Replacements — by @tmwrnr

Search and browse the e18e community's curated list of 700+ modern npm package replacements, grouped alphabetically with a filter for replacement type (Native, Simple, Community choice, Removal). Each entry opens a detail view with a description, code snippets, and links to MDN or Node docs.

VN Textify — by @loco1842

Transforms selected Telex-typed text into proper Vietnamese with one hotkey, so bilingual users can stay on an English keyboard instead of switching IMEs — e.g. tooi ddang hocj code becomes tôi đang học code.

Updates to existing productivity extensions:

  • Things: new Detail view for to-dos — press Enter on any list item to see its notes rendered as Markdown plus a metadata sidebar (status, dates, tags, project, area), with "Open in Things" demoted to the secondary action.
  • Apple Developer Docs: search history is now filtered by your current query, so typed searches no longer get buried under recently-visited entries.
  • Warp: added Tab Config support.
  • Finder File Actions: pinned folders can now have custom display names.
  • Browser History: added support for the Helium browser.
  • JetBrains Toolbox Recent Projects: shows the current git branch next to each project.
  • iTerm: "Edit in iTerm" now respects the new-window/new-tab preference instead of always opening a new window.
  • Slack: fixed slack:// deep links on Windows.
  • FileZilla: added support for the Mac App Store FileZilla Pro build.
  • Cloudflare: the View Workers command moves to a richer detail view with compatibility dates and flags, handlers, and placement status.
  • GitLab: added an option to hide archived projects in the menu bar.
  • Port Manager: fixed lsof process leaks.
  • Zipic: the Images Compression extension was renamed to Zipic and gained "Compress with Options" and "Compress with Preset" commands, the latter reading presets directly from the Zipic app.

Worth a Look

Mouse Jiggle — by @steveafrost

Continuously nudges the mouse cursor to keep your Mac awake or hold a Teams/Slack status active, with start/stop commands and no external dependencies — it uses macOS's built-in Swift interpreter. An optional Fun Mode draws an orange trail that tracks the cursor across the screen.


Wrappers for Other Services

Bilibili Search — by @ADog55B

Bilibili is one of China's largest video-sharing and streaming platforms; this extension searches it with real-time autosuggestions and opens results in your default browser, with search history and a clipboard fallback.

Pinwork — by @blankamo

Built for users of Pinwork, a local-first, GTD-inspired task manager for Apple devices currently in TestFlight beta. The extension adds Today, Inbox, Next, Projects, and Search views plus a Quick Add command that understands Pinwork's natural-language syntax, all routed through the app's URL scheme.

Notaday — by @soulmate1337

A Raycast client for Notaday, a task-and-routine productivity app organized around tags and channels. Search open entries, create tasks or routines with due dates, and manage tags and channels without leaving Raycast (requires a Notaday API token).

Update:

  • Gather: now supports Gather V2 alongside V1 — Gather is a virtual-office platform where teams meet in a spatial, video-game-style space.
