Shortcut Management

Beyond the library table view, Shortcuts Toolbox provides a rich detail view for each shortcut.

Shortcut Detail View

  • Full metadata display — See all metadata including name, folder, action count, creation date, and more
  • JSON structure view — Inspect the raw shortcut structure
  • Run with parameters — Execute the shortcut directly, optionally passing input parameters
  • Scoped dependency graph — View the dependency graph centered on this shortcut
  • AI explanation — Let the AI analyze and explain what a shortcut does
  • Execution history — View all past runs of the shortcut with their results in the Audit Log
  • AI settings — Configure visibility, executability, and privacy per shortcut
  • iCloud link generation — Generate shareable iCloud links for your shortcuts

Ready to automate? Send any shortcut to the scheduler, star it as a favorite, or export it as a self-contained download.
