Workspace Map

Read-only terminal and JSON views of the current macOS workspace

Updated Edit on GitHub →

lats map is a read-only drawing of the current desktop. The structured read is desktop.snapshot (one call: frontmost, layer, displays, windows, sessions, permissions). Map prefers that payload, then falls back to joining spaces.list and windows.list on older app builds. It either draws a proportional terminal diagram or returns a versioned JSON projection.

It does not open, focus, move, resize, or capture a macOS window. Its box drawing exists only in the invoking terminal. This is separate from the interactive Studio / Screen Map window and the Hyper+3 HUD.
