sketchybar-toggle — seamless switching between SketchyBar and the native menu bar

[malpern]

sketchybar-toggle

A lightweight Swift daemon that coordinates SketchyBar and the native macOS menu bar. When your mouse moves to the top of the screen, SketchyBar hides and the native menu bar appears. Move away and SketchyBar slides back.

Features

• No Accessibility or Input Monitoring permissions needed
• Works across screen resolutions — no hardcoded values
• Installs via Homebrew: brew install malpern/tap/sketchybar-toggle
• Just add topmost=window to your bar config

Links

• GitHub: malpern/sketchybar-toggle
• Inspired by the discussion in #281 and @bwl's Cursor Bouncer

Would love feedback — especially if you run into issues on your setup.

I love this a lot! I will add it into my config tonight and check back if I run into any issues.

Great work, Cheers!

@malpern Just wow! It took all of 2minutes for me to 'brew install' and add the execution command to my config and it worked flawlessly (and continues to) from the first restart.

Well done man, smooth and functional!
