A searchable list

Each tool has a name and a category. Search and category filters narrow the list; Enter launches the first result. Dragging a card changes the order of the list.

Notification icon menu with the list of favorites.

Favorites

Tools marked with a star and the five most launched are favorites. An automatic favorite can be removed. The notification icon menu shows only favorites.

Tool options expanded on its card, with the option to hide the console.

  3. Click "Launch", or pick a favorite from the icon menu (right-click).
