Activation uses the native macOS hotkey API, without an Accessibility permission or a global keyboard monitor. It works only while Conjure is running; it does not launch a quit app or enable launch at login.
## Launch at login
Add `/Applications/Conjure.app` in **System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions → Open at Login**. Conjure recognizes the native [login-launch Apple event](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreservices/1556410-launch_apple_event_constants) and starts without showing a window or taking focus, while still registering its saved global shortcut. Opening it manually from Finder still shows the launcher, including when it is already running.
If shortcut registration fails at login, the error is retained and shown in Settings when you next open Conjure manually. Normal manual launches continue to report startup errors immediately. Conjure does not manage the login-item setting itself.
## Discovery and search
Applications are discovered in `/Applications`, `/System/Applications`, `/System/Library/CoreServices/Applications`, and `~/Applications`, including nested folders. Discovery runs off the UI thread and refreshes whenever the launcher is presented. Hidden items, invalid bundles, and helpers inside application packages are excluded; symlinked applications are deduplicated by their canonical paths.
