Shortcuts CLI

The shortcuts command manages and runs shortcuts on macOS.

Run

bash
shortcuts run "My Shortcut"
shortcuts run "My Shortcut" -i input.txt
shortcuts run "My Shortcut" -o output.txt
echo "data" | shortcuts run "My Shortcut"

Run by identifier (stable across renames):

bash
shortcuts run "01C97432-525A-4BF6-94DF-C35458FCD21A"

Get identifiers with shortcuts list --show-identifiers.

Headless behavior

Shortcuts with GUI actions (alerts, menus, input prompts) fail with "Running was cancelled" when run from the CLI. Only non-interactive shortcuts work headlessly.

Permissions

First-time actions (notifications, location, contacts, etc.) trigger a macOS permission dialog. The shortcut pauses until the user approves. Inform the user when running a shortcut that may trigger permission prompts.

List

bash
shortcuts list
shortcuts list --show-identifiers
shortcuts list -f "Folder Name"
shortcuts list --folders

View

Opens a shortcut in the Shortcuts app editor:

bash
shortcuts view "My Shortcut"

Sign

Sign a .shortcut file for import (requires network — contacts Apple's signing service):

bash
mkdir -p out
shortcuts sign -i "My Shortcut.shortcut" -o "out/My Shortcut.shortcut"

Sign into an output directory to preserve the unsigned binary. The filename (minus .shortcut) becomes the shortcut name on import — do not add suffixes.

Import

There is no shortcuts import command. Open the signed file to trigger import:

bash
open "out/My Shortcut.shortcut"

The user confirms import in the Shortcuts app GUI.
