• Skills + Agents — Discovers both skills and agents from each tool's directories
• Built-in editor — Monospaced editor with Cmd+S save, frontmatter parsing
• Collections — Organize skills and agents without modifying source files
• Real-time file watching — FSEvents-based, instant updates on disk changes
• Full-text search — Search across name, description, and content
• Create new skills & agents — Generates correct boilerplate per tool
• Remote servers — Connect to servers running OpenClaw, Hermes, or other layouts to discover, browse, and install skills

Prerequisites

• macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later
• Xcode with command-line tools (xcode-select --install)
• Homebrew (brew.sh)
• xcodegen — brew install xcodegen

Sparkle (auto-update framework) is the only external dependency and is pulled automatically by Xcode via Swift Package Manager. No manual setup needed.

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/Shpigford/chops.git
cd chops
brew install xcodegen    # skip if already installed
xcodegen generate        # generates Chops.xcodeproj from project.yml
open Chops.xcodeproj     # opens in Xcode

Then hit **Cmd+R** to build and run.
