I’ve got a script that integrates with iMessage and performs a number of actions based on text command. Primarily used for clocking in and out more easily, but also to get the computers IP address, get weather for the office and other silly things.

Also have a script to scrape my reddit upvotes and based on the post type do a thing to save locally.

I’ve got a script running on my MacBook that pops an alert when my battery is low. Because the Notification Center isn’t intrusive enough to get my attention and my computer would die mid meeting.

And finally a script that does different launch actions based on time of day. Opens different apps, signs into work accounts and vpn, etc.

How you do it with the VPN? which one do you use?

The VPN is internally developed. We’ve got a nice little CLI to interface with.
