/floating-clock:launch

Open the FloatingClock app.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If the launch path or fallback logic breaks — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Steps

Prefer the installed app; fall back to the local build if the user hasn't installed yet:

if [ -d /Applications/FloatingClock.app ]; then
  open /Applications/FloatingClock.app
  echo "Launched from /Applications/"
else
  PLUGIN_ROOT="$(cc-plugin-root floating-clock)"
  LOCAL_APP="$PLUGIN_ROOT/build/FloatingClock.app"
  if [ -d "$LOCAL_APP" ]; then
    open "$LOCAL_APP"
    echo "Launched from local build at $LOCAL_APP"
    echo "Tip: run /floating-clock:install to put it in /Applications/ for Spotlight access."
  else
    echo "No app found. Run /floating-clock:install first."
    exit 1
  fi
fi

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

  1. Did open succeed silently? — If macOS surfaced a gatekeeper prompt, document the bypass.
  2. Did the fallback to local build trigger when expected? — If the user has the installed app but it's stale, the system path wins; that's intentional.
  3. Did paths drift?/Applications/FloatingClock.app or local build path change → update the script.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
