Raycast

The Frayo extension adds every capture mode to Raycast, so you can start a capture from your launcher.

It is not in the Raycast Store yet. Today you install it from source, as described in the extension README.

Commands

• Capture Area, Previous Area, Window, Full Screen, Scrolling
• Record Screen, Copy Text, Self-Timer
• Quick Search, Open Library
• Recent Captures and Search Captures, with thumbnails

Search Captures finds by name, window title and the words inside the screenshot.

In a list, you can Open, Copy the file, Show in Finder or Copy Path (⌘⇧C).

To give a command a hotkey or a short name, open Raycast Settings › Extensions.

Command-line access

Recent Captures and Search Captures use the command-line tool, and Record Screen opens a link that starts recording without a picker. Turn on Allow scripts and agents to capture in Settings › Integrations first. See Command line. Without it, Frayo shows a notice saying so and does nothing. The other commands do not need it.

Notes

• Frayo needs Screen Recording permission, however you start a capture.
• The commands need the direct download. The Mac App Store version has no command-line tool.
