New Script

Create and manage TypeScript scripts for Script Kit.

Where Scripts Live

~/.scriptkit/plugins/main/scripts/*.ts

Scripts are automatically discovered by Script Kit when saved to this directory.

Creating a New Script

1. Create a .ts file in ~/.scriptkit/plugins/main/scripts/
2. Add the SDK import and metadata export
3. Save — Script Kit detects it immediately

Minimal Template

import "@scriptkit/sdk";

export const metadata = {
  name: "My Script",
  description: "What this script does",
};

// Your code here

With Global Hotkey

import "@scriptkit/sdk";

export const metadata = {
  name: "Quick Capture",
  description: "Capture a quick note",
  shortcut: "cmd shift n",
};

const note = await ();
 filePath = (, );
 .(filePath, note);
();
