@gastonrampersad @sandropennisi You're correct :) If you look at the metadata for Contacts, Apple included kMDItemKeywords "Address Book" for it.

Alfred learns from your usage, so if you opened Contacts with that keyword before, it'll come up at the top. Choose Books or Font Book a couple of times if that's the result you prefer, and it'll be prioritised going forward ^V

@rem @flogehring There's a CSV import workflow for snippets which might be useful, which has been used by community members to import their TE snippets: alfred.app/workflows/alfredapp

Any questions, just pop a post on the forum as we don't check Mastodon very often! :) ^V

Sometimes it's the simplest workflows that are most useful!

You can have custom-sized kitten and bear placeholder images at your fingertips with the Placeholder Images workflow, added today to the Gallery: alfred.app/workflows/alfredapp

Screenshot of an Alfred window with the keyword "kitten" and query "400,600", with a single result of "Kitten Placeholder Image". Pressing Return will open a page with an image of this size to be used as placeholder.
