macos-font-defaults — set the system fixed-width font
Self-Evolving skill — if a macOS release changes these defaults keys or Stickies' storage, fix this SKILL.md and
apply.sh; see the Post-Execution Reflection at the bottom.
macOS has no single system-wide monospaced-font setting. This skill sets the three levers that exist, in one idempotent command:
APPLY="$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/skills/macos-font-defaults/apply.sh"
| Lever | What it controls |
|---|---|
global NSFixedPitchFont |
+[NSFont userFixedPitchFontOfSize:] — TextEdit plain text and other standard-text-system apps |
com.apple.TextEdit NSFixedPitchFont |
TextEdit's plain-text font explicitly (belt-and-suspenders) |
Stickies DefaultFont |
new Stickies notes (archived NSFont in the sandbox container plist) |
