ClaudeCast: Claude for Raycast

What it is

A Raycast extension that gives Claude a keystroke-away chat window, using the Claude Code CLI under your own Claude Pro subscription instead of an API key.

What it does

Raycast commands call the local `claude` CLI and show the conversation inside Raycast, keeping a history.

Features

  • Commands: Chat, Quick Ask, History (plus debug commands)
  • Preferences for the Claude Code path, log level, history size and debug mode
  • Conversation history stored locally

Capabilities

Fast questions and short conversations without opening a terminal or browser.

Compatibility

  • Raycast on macOS; Node.js 22 or later; the Claude Code CLI installed and signed in with a Pro subscription

Availability

Free, MIT licensed, installed from source (not in the Raycast store): github.com/ivg-design/ClaudeCast. Last updated 2025-08-23.

Under the hood

TypeScript Raycast extension with shell scripts that drive the Claude Code CLI.
