Fast
Everything is a keystroke away and answers before you finish typing. Search by name, kind, size, date, tag or permissions.

List view
Every command has a shortcut, and you can rebind any of them — sequences too, like ⌘N F F.
Space previews images, PDFs, code, archives and whole folders without opening anything.
Accessible
Follows your macOS accessibility settings, or overrides them: motion, contrast, transparency and text size, plus VoiceOver labels.
Reduce motion, high contrast and reduce transparency follow the system — or set them yourself.
Readable at any size
Seven text sizes, from compact to large, applied to the whole window at once.
An outline around names keeps them readable over see-through panels and busy backgrounds.
Convenient
Two folders side by side, menus that tell you what everything is, and notifications that never get in the way.
~/Downloads
~/Projects
Drag between panes, copy or move — even to another window, a server over SSH, or Finder.
Each extension has its color, so you know where an action comes from at a glance.
Banners like macOS for things that finish in the background; the bell keeps them for later.
Extensions
Turn on what you use. Every extension asks for the permissions it needs — network, Keychain, background work — and you can take any of them back.
Commit just the files you tick, browse the log, diff, pull, push, switch branches and stash — from the context menu.
$ ssh me@build-box
Browse servers with your own ~/.ssh/config, keys and agent. Tailscale sign-in links, passwords in Keychain.
Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode sessions in the sidebar: live chats, replies with your model and effort, tokens and limits.
Browse ZIP, TAR and GZ without unpacking; extract with conflict handling; create ZIP, 7z, TAR.GZ.
Copy-on-write forks of any folder: experiment freely, then apply the changes or throw them away.
Open any folder — or a server folder over SSH — in Terminal, iTerm, Warp or Ghostty.
Pro extensions
Paid extensions are signed packages unlocked by a license key, checked on your Mac with no account and no server. Everything above stays free.
