CLUSTER BAR-INPUT-MACOS · 7 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-27

macOS keyboard input switchers

These macOS menu bar utilities switch keyboard input sources (Japanese, Korean, English) using Command-key shortcuts, aiming to reduce input-method delay and fix cross-device issues like Universal Control. The cluster has no dated entries before the index start (2026-08-11), so its pre-index history is too thin to read a shape from; it likely predates the index or its members are undated. Among the listed products, command-input shows the strongest activity signal with 2 stars, per the given traction ordering.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
