RClick uses a dual-process architecture:
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
Main App (RClick/) |
SwiftUI menu bar app — manages settings, state, and file operations |
FinderSync Extension (FinderSyncExt/) |
Injected into Finder — renders custom context menu items |
Communication between the two processes uses DistributedNotificationCenter. Settings are persisted via SwiftData with a shared App Group container.
