What it does

Munu runs on macOS 15 or newer, on Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or newer). There is no Intel Mac build, and About This Mac tells you which chip you have.

On a Mac it can work with the apps you already use. It can read your newest unread mail and your calendar, open a draft in Mail for you to send yourself, control Spotify, and type into the app you name after checking that the app really is in front.

It never sends mail by itself: Mail gets a draft. It types and presses Return in Messages, Slack or another chat app only when you ask, and never in Terminal or other script apps.
