About this project
Vorssaint is a free and open-source macOS menu bar toolkit that gathers many utilities commonly sold as separate paid apps behind a single menu bar icon. It requires macOS 14 or newer on Apple Silicon and is licensed GPL-3.0-or-later. Everything runs locally on the Mac, with no account, no telemetry and no subscription.
A central design idea is modularity: the Features page installs and uninstalls whole features, and anything uninstalled stops loading entirely, so it consumes no CPU, memory or energy. Settings are preserved, so reinstalling restores previous configuration. First setup offers three one-click bundles (Essentials, Windows, and Battery and quiet) plus a visual picker for individual features, and only the permissions needed for the chosen features are requested. Each feature carries an energy badge describing what it keeps active.
Capability areas described in the README include:
- Sound: a per-app volume mixer with exact percentages and boosting past 100%, per-app output routing, an output switcher, microphone pinning and global mute, and a blocker for the Music app auto-launching on headphone connection. No audio driver is required.
- System monitoring: CPU, GPU, memory, swap and temperature readings with history graphs, battery charge, temperature, health, cycles and power draw, an optional Fan Control beta with manual speeds and temperature curves, menu bar readouts, network rates and a speed test, plus optional alerts for sustained load, high temperatures, memory pressure, low disk and low battery.
- Windows and Dock: an enhanced app switcher with live window thumbnails, minimized windows and per-app rules; window snapping to halves, thirds, sixths, corners and center with configurable gaps and edge snapping; Dock hover previews; Dock click behaviors; a maximize behavior that avoids creating new Spaces; quit-on-close; and quit/close protection.
- Keyboard and mouse: text snippet expansion with clipboard, date and time variables; smooth scrolling; pointer acceleration control; focus-follows-mouse; scroll direction inversion; side-button and extra-button shortcuts; middle click via three-finger press; per-app exclusions; extra click filtering; key debounce; a Super key remapping Caps Lock or a right-side modifier; and a centralized keyboard shortcut editor.
- Clipboard, files and links: local clipboard history for text, images and files with pinning and search; auto-clear on schedule, sleep or lock; paste as plain text; a drag-and-drop Shelf; Finder move/rename shortcuts; URL tracking-parameter cleaning; and a one-click disk image installer.
- Everyday tools: an optional Dynamic Island with music, controls, clipboard, captures, files and system details, configurable floating shortcuts, notification surfacing, timers and Pomodoro, camera mirror, and file actions; a Command Bar that runs app commands, answers calculations and conversions, searches chosen folders and supports local scripts; a quick panel; quick toggles; a radial menu with profiles; and screen capture tools covering screenshots, screen recording, text capture and color picking, with an editor for annotations, redaction, backgrounds and export.
The README also mentions panel section reordering, a compact tabbed layout, settings export/import, independent light/dark appearance, and support for more than a dozen languages. Links are provided to the project website, releases, changelog, Discord community and a donation page.
