Changelog
What's new
Prism updates itself; these are the notes it shows you.
- Latest
- Suggestions in the empty list. With nothing typed, the launcher now suggests up to two dozen items you actually use, drawn from every source, and gives new applications and extensions a week at the top until you first use them. Favorites stay above, and the browse groups below follow a fixed order.
- A clearer scope header. The token beside the search field now says what the query searches inside (the app an app search runs in, the extension whose list is open, the row whose arguments you are entering) and appears only where the rows themselves cannot say it. The old footer badge is gone.
- Backspace in an empty search field now steps back a scope at a time, just as Escape does.
- A newly installed extension's suggestions step aside once you run one of its commands.
- Apple Shortcuts in root search. Search and run your shortcuts without leaving Prism, and open any of them in the Shortcuts editor. Each shortcut takes an alias, a global hotkey, and an enable toggle in the new Shortcuts settings pane, grouped by folder, and the list refreshes itself when your library changes.
- New OpenCode Go models. GPT-6 Luna, Grok 4.7, Kimi K3.1 Pro, and Gemini 4 Argon are available to OpenCode Go plans.
- A reply that stopped early now shows the text it received instead of coming back empty.
- System Settings colors for command tiles. Commands that open a System Settings pane now borrow that pane's sidebar icon and color, the Trash commands get their own gray tile, and every tile shares the same measured depth.
- Light starter models. Connecting an AI provider starts Ask Prism, AI Commands, and Translate on a fast model from that provider, unless you already chose one. Switching OpenCode plans keeps your draft when the new plan's starter takes over.
- The power pane row follows this Mac's battery name again.
- My Schedule in Spotlight-style rows. Upcoming events now use the same compact rows as root search, and the schedule refreshes itself when the day rolls over.
- Appearance preview. Settings › General › Appearance now shows a live preview of the launcher's look as you switch options.
- Extension lists reload right away after you grant an extension access to a folder.
- After installing an extension, the Gallery stays open so you can keep browsing.
- The pointer highlight only appears once you move the mouse, instead of under a resting pointer.
The first release from prismformac.com.
- Automatic updates. Prism checks for new versions and can install them when it quits. Choose Check for Updates… in the menu bar menu, or set it up in Settings › General › Updates.
- Homebrew. Install with
brew install --cask natsustan/tap/prism-app. - New app identity. Prism now uses the bundle ID
com.cosmostudio.prism, so macOS asks again for Accessibility and other permissions, and settings start fresh. - Extensions can tell Prism when their widgets change, so the widget strip refreshes right away.
- Root search spacing is even under widgets and favorites.
