What Vimputer reads from macOS, and the permissions some actions need.

Vimputer reads your installed apps to fill the app pickers and to flag apps a binding opens that have since been uninstalled. Nothing else needs permission until you use one of these actions:

Action Needs
Menu command Accessibility, to read an app’s menus and press an item. If it’s missing, the action editor shows Grant.
App command Automation for the target app. macOS asks the first time it runs.

Grant Accessibility in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility.

All of these run through Vimputer, so the app has to be running for the binding to work.
