Power Toybox Deck

Power Toybox Deck is an unofficial Stream Deck plugin compatible with Microsoft PowerToys. It lets you place PowerToys utilities, shortcuts, Run aliases, Command Palette commands, and Keyboard Manager mappings on Stream Deck keys from one synchronized action.

What is included:

- One configurable "Toybox Command" action.

- A PowerToys-inspired Property Inspector with search, filters, command details, and title controls.

- Quick Access utilities such as Color Picker, FancyZones Editor, PowerToys Run, Command Palette, Text Extractor, Screen Ruler, Shortcut Guide, Workspaces, and more when available.

- PowerToys global hotkeys, PowerToys Run action keywords, Command Palette aliases and command hotkeys, plus Keyboard Manager mappings.

How it works: the plugin reads the current user's local PowerToys settings files and stores a stable command ID for each Stream Deck key instead of copying the shortcut text. When PowerToys settings change, visible keys can refresh their title, icon, shortcut, alias, and execution behavior. Pressing a key signals a PowerToys event when available, or falls back to the current hotkey or typed alias.

Requirements: Windows 10 or 11, Stream Deck 6.9 or newer, and Microsoft PowerToys installed and opened at least once for the current Windows user. Power Toybox Deck reads local settings only and does not require a separate .NET runtime for the packaged plugin.
