About:
Keyboard Cowboy is a powerful macOS utility that enables users to create and manage complex keyboard shortcuts for any application or system-wide action. It provides an intuitive interface for automating workflows, scripting repetitive tasks, and boosting productivity through personalized key bindings. The tool bridges the gap between simple shortcuts and advanced automation without requiring scripting knowledge.
Key Features:
  • Visual shortcut editor with drag-and-drop interface
  • Application-specific and global hotkey support
  • Workflow automation with multi-action sequences
  • Integration with system commands and third-party apps
  • Real-time shortcut conflict detection
Use Cases:
  • Automating repetitive development tasks and build processes
  • Creating custom shortcuts for creative workflows (design, video editing)
  • Building application launchers and window management scripts
  • Streamlining data entry and text manipulation tasks
Alternatives:
  • BetterTouchTool – More comprehensive but steeper learning curve and higher price
  • Alfred – Focuses on search and launching with workflows as secondary feature
  • Hammerspoon – Scripting-focused with Lua, requires programming knowledge
