macos-cgeventtap-rust

What problem does it solve?

This Skill demonstrates how to set up a system-wide input interception mechanism on macOS using Rust, bridging high-level Rust code with macOS CoreGraphics event taps to monitor and optionally simulate input events.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Setup and run CGEventTap in a background thread with CFRunLoop integration.
• Implement mutable state in the callback via static, Arc<Mutex<_>>, or channels for robust multi-listener patterns.
• Support double-click detection, key/mouse event simulation, and proper teardown with permission handling.

Quick Start

Run the Rust-based macOS event tap example to start intercepting input.
