A small macOS Finder toolbar application that opens the currently viewed Finder directory in the Terminal with one click. It is written in Objective-C, shell-agnostic, and distributed as a notarized universal binary.

Use cases

  • open terminal at current finder folder
  • cd to directory from finder toolbar
  • launch terminal in selected folder on mac
  • quickly open a shell in the folder I'm browsing
  • add a cd-to button to finder toolbar

When to choose

  • you use macOS Finder and frequently want a terminal in the current directory
  • you want a fast, native, shell-agnostic solution that works with bash, zsh, or fish
  • you want a signed, notarized app supporting Apple Silicon and Intel

When to avoid

  • you use Linux or Windows
  • you want to open other terminal emulators like iTerm2 (plugin support was removed in version 3.0)
  • you prefer Finder-integrated alternatives like built-in shortcuts or third-party file managers
