Steam

Launches games from your Steam library. Both native (pre-installed) and Flatpak Steam installations are automatically detected. Games are launched using xdg-open, which works in both desktop and gaming modes.

Games are indexed from:

  • ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/
  • ~/.local/share/Steam/

To manually launch a Steam game, write steam://<app_id> to a token.

Shell Scripts

Execute arbitrary shell scripts. Requires explicit allow list configuration for security.
