Cursor Crane 1.1.0: Declarative Workflows and Multi-Element Selection

Cursor Crane 1.1.0 expands keyboard-first automation on macOS with declarative workflows, multi-element selection, and improved scripting APIs.

let you turn fixed sequences of built-in actions into reusable commands without writing JavaScript logic, state, or forms.

They are especially useful for turning hard-to-remember shortcuts into command sequences. For example, in Xcode, similar actions such as:

  • Move Focus to Next Editor Pane

  • Jump to Next Issue

  • Jump to Next Change

can be turned into three workflow and mapped to commands "ne", "ni", and "nc".


Workflows can also guide Element Mode more precisely. Use "rootSelector" to limit the search area and

"filterSelectors" to control which elements are highlighted.

Element Menu Mode now supports selecting multiple elements. You can pass the selection to Element Burst Mode for batch actions, combined text extraction, and screenshots of the selected region.


For more advanced workflows, you can always use JavaScript base which comes with more power in this version.

QWERTZ keyboard layout support is also included.

The Xcode example made everything click for me. It's much easier to remember a short command than a long keyboard shortcut. I can already think of a few apps where I'd set this up immediately.
