Add macOS Finder dynamic toolbar with 9 file management commands

[Copilot]

Implements a dynamic toolbar for macOS Finder with common file operations accessible via Loupedeck devices.

Structure

• FinderApplication: Links plugin to macOS Finder (com.apple.finder)
• FinderFolder: Dynamic toolbar container for organizing commands
• 9 Command Classes: File operations using native keyboard shortcuts

Commands

Command	Shortcut	Operation
New Window	⌘N	Opens new Finder window
New Folder	⌘⇧N	Creates folder in current location
Move to Trash	⌘Delete	Deletes selected items
Get Info	⌘I	Shows item properties
Quick Look	Space	Previews selected items
Go Back	⌘[	Previous folder navigation
Go Forward	⌘]	Forward folder navigation
View Options	⌘J	View customization panel
Duplicate	⌘D	Duplicates selected items

All commands inherit from PluginDynamicCommand and use SendKeyboardShortcut() for reliability. Toolbar auto-activates when Finder is frontmost.

Example

public class FinderNewWindowCommand : PluginDynamicCommand
{
    public FinderNewWindowCommand()
        : base(displayName: "New Window", description: "Opens a new Finder window", groupName: "Finder")
    {
    }

    protected override void RunCommand(String actionParameter)
    {
        this.Plugin.ClientApplication.SendKeyboardShortcut(VirtualKeyCode.VK_N, ShiftKeyFlags.Command);
    }
}

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• logitech.github.io
  • Triggering command: /home/REDACTED/work/_temp/ghcca-node/node/bin/node /home/REDACTED/work/_temp/ghcca-node/node/bin/node --enable-source-maps /home/REDACTED/work/_temp/copilot-developer-action-main/dist/index.js (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
