Jerome (He/Him)<p>Over the last year I've been on-and-off-again troubleshooting an <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Alfred" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Alfred</span></a> workflow for Gitlab that refuses to update my project list.</p><p>I finally figured it out today. I was missing a file. I have no idea why it was deleted. Zero errors. The file has the exact same name as another file that does something completely different.</p><p>Also this would've been fixed a long time ago if I just reinstalled the workflow.</p>
Stephen Millard<p>v1.7 of Bypass, my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Alfred" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Alfred</span></a> app workflow for working with Apple <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Shortcuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Shortcuts</span></a> is available now. Full details in change log, but notably can now explicitly copy the ID of a shortcut. It makes it easy to then use an ID with my upcoming <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/StreamDeck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StreamDeck</span></a> plugin which got a new beta release today.</p><p><a href="https://www.thoughtasylum.com/alfred/alfred_bypass_for_shortcuts/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thoughtasylum.com/alfred/alfre</span><span class="invisible">d_bypass_for_shortcuts/</span></a></p>

Stephen Millard<p>This Easter weekend I've already released new versions of two <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Alfred" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Alfred</span></a> workflows ('Bypass' for Apple <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Shortcuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Shortcuts</span></a> and 'Read the 🤐 Manual'), and a brand new one 'Factor' for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Warp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Warp</span></a> (the terminal app).</p><p>Today I'm pushing another couple of small'ish updates.

Stephen Millard<p>An extra long weekend and the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Alfred" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Alfred</span></a> workflow updates keep coming.

The main things are being able to choose a shortcut to run from a set of shortcuts you associate with the current app or current focus mode, and it's now easier to specify your own trigger keywords.</p><p><a href="https://www.thoughtasylum.com/alfred/alfred_bypass_for_shortcuts/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thoughtasylum.com/alfred/alfre</span><span class="invisible">d_bypass_for_shortcuts/</span></a></p>
