About docktor
docktor is a productivity utility designed specifically for macOS users to reclaim and optimize the idle space surrounding their desktop Dock. Created by maker Peter Sauer, the application transforms the otherwise wasted area on either side of an unhidden Dock into a functional dashboard filled with glanceable widgets.
Instead of cluttering your menu bar or forcing you to open separate windows, docktor integrates seamlessly into your workflow by parking essential information right where your Mac was already wasting screen space. Current available widgets include music controls, calendar events, weather updates, and system stats, with more features planned for the future.
In addition to widget integration, docktor introduces a convenient hover preview feature. By simply mousing over an app in your Dock, users can instantly view its open windows without needing to click or switch focus.
Pros of docktor
- Utilizes wasted screen space on either side of the macOS Dock
- Provides glanceable widgets for music, calendar, weather, and system stats
- Includes useful hover previews to check open app windows without clicking
- Keeps the menu bar clean by not adding extra icons fighting for room
Cons of docktor
- Requires keeping the Dock visible to utilize the side space
- Currently features a limited set of widgets (with more coming soon)
- Available exclusively for macOS users

About TestForge Agent Trials
TestForge Agent Trials is an analytical developer tool designed to preemptively evaluate the behavior of AI agents before they are deployed in live environments. Users can input their agent's system prompts, AGENTS.md files, or specific skill definitions into the platform. Powered by GPT-5.6, the tool then subjects the agent to five inert, simulated behavioral trials. These trials are designed to safely test how the agent interprets and executes its instructions without making real-world actions or API calls. The core value of TestForge lies in its deep diagnostic capabilities. It meticulously separates the actions the model actually took during the simulation from what the user's instructions explicitly supported. Developers can inspect every decision, identifying control conflicts, ignored criteria, and 'minimal redlines'โareas where the prompt failed to constrain the AI properly. Ultimately, it generates a downloadable, traceable Trial Record, providing concrete behavioral evidence based on specific test cases to help refine and secure AI agent instructions.
Pros of TestForge Agent Trials
- Allows developers to safely observe how an AI agent interprets instructions before it takes live actions.
- Provides deep, granular diagnostics by highlighting control conflicts and pinpointing where the model deviated from the prompt.
- Generates a downloadable, traceable Trial Record that serves as concrete behavioral evidence for the agent.
Cons of TestForge Agent Trials
- Relies entirely on simulated ('inert') trials, which may not capture unpredictable edge cases that occur with live API integrations.
- The tool explicitly states it provides 'behavioral evidence' rather than formal certification, meaning it is a diagnostic aid rather than a definitive security guarantee.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of files or text can I test with TestForge?
You can test any text that governs your AI's behavior, including standard system prompts, AGENTS.md files, or specific skill definitions.
Does TestForge actually execute my agent's code?
No. The trials are 'inert,' meaning TestForge simulates the behavioral decisions the agent would make based on your prompt, but it does not execute live actions or call external APIs.
