Some more examples:

- xlg 'hn "Claude" | take 5 | print' — search Hacker News

- xlg 'github "language:rust cli" | take 3 | print' — search GitHub

- xlg 'museum "monet" | take 3 | print' — browse Met Museum collection

- xlg 'play "Debussy"' — play on Apple Music (macOS)

It also runs as an MCP server, so AI agents (Claude Desktop, OpenClaw) can use these tools directly.

What is your preferred use case for this?

I went through a similar transition and ended up with yabai + skhd for tiling. The Dock pain is real.

One thing I'd love to see: integration with tiling WMs. Being able to see which windows are in the current yabai Space, and maybe even switch between stacked windows, would be amazing.

Does boringBar play nicely with yabai or similar tools?
