## What it is
A macOS Notification Center Today View widget that lets users run shell or interpreter scripts and view their output directly in the widget. It supports ANSI colorized output, custom labels, custom interpreters, and manual or automatic script execution.

## Use cases
- show system stats in notification center
- run shell scripts from the mac today view
- display server status in notification center widget
- run python or applescript snippets on mac dashboard
- monitor tasks with colorized terminal output on macos
- quickly execute scripts without opening terminal

## When to choose
- you want to run and view script output inside macOS Notification Center
- you need ANSI colorized output from scripts in a widget
- you want to run scripts with arbitrary interpreters like Python or AppleScript

## When to avoid
- you are on a macOS version that removed the Today view widgets (post-Big Sur Notification Center changes)
- you need cross-platform widget support
- you need a maintained project with an active license and recent updates
