What is trae-work-dream-skin?

TRAE Work Dream Skin is a small tool for changing the visual theme of TRAE Work, a macOS app. You can pick one of the built in looks, or upload your own image to build a custom home screen theme. It does not modify TRAE Work's app files, code signature, account data, projects, or chat history. Themes are applied through a temporary local debugging session, so you can always switch back to the official look. It currently only supports macOS, and has been tested on Apple Silicon with TRAE Work versions 0.1.30 through 0.1.36. Installing it does not require Node.js or any developer tools. You download the ZIP from GitHub, open the macos folder inside it, and double click an install command file. If TRAE Work is running, you save your work and restart it once when prompted. After installing, four shortcuts appear on the desktop for launching, customizing, verifying, and restoring the theme. To use your own image, you double click the customize command, choose a landscape image ideally at least 2000 pixels wide, type a name for your theme, and TRAE Work refreshes automatically to show it. There is also a verify command that takes a screenshot so you can check the result, and a restore command that turns the theme off and closes the local debug port without touching any of your projects or chats. Five built in themes are included, ranging from an arcade style default to pixel art, forest colors, sky themed illustrations, and a retro 2007 software look, each suited to different kinds of images. Developers can also run the project's test suite and build scripts directly, and there is a companion Codex Skill that can be copied into a Codex skills folder to automate installing, switching, and verifying themes. The project is based on an existing open source project called Codex-Dream-Skin and is released under the MIT License. It does not include any third party character artwork such as Mario or Pikachu, and asks users to only use images they have rights to.
