This is a command palette plugin for Ghidra, meant to give access to hidden or difficult-to-find commands in the same way that the (similarly-named) [[https://github.com/Jinmo/ifred][ifred]] plugin does for IDA.

** Installation A build for Ghidra 9.2.0 is available in the dist/ directory. Opening Ghidra and going to File->Install Extensions...->Add extensions and selecting the zip file from dist/ will add the plugin.

If you'd like to develop this plugin or build it yourself, I've included the necessary gradle and eclipse project files. Follow this [[https://pedrojavier.com/devblog/tutorialwritingaghidraloader/][guide]] for setting up Eclipse with Ghidra and then import this project.

** Usage The command palette is by default bound to ALT-P. You can select any command available in the current context from the plugin, and execute it by pressing either Enter or double-clicking. You can also press ESC to close the palette.

** Features

• access any available command instantly
• filter search
• context-sensitive action selection (WIP)

** Improvements I'm pretty fed up with Swing at the moment, so it'll probably be a while before I get around to any of these.

• Fixing context-based sorting for displayed actions
• fix broken context-sensitive commands
• reorder class hierarchy so dialog is handled only by the provider
• Make palette always open at fixed position (this may be a window manager issue on my end)
• UI improvements
