Sunday at 02:11 PM1 day Newbies Hi everyone,I'm in private aviation, running FileMaker in-house solutions for about 13 years. To stay on track with AI development I've built a few small tools. Eventually I decided to pack them into a native FileMaker plugin, so it's one tool instead.The three biggest problems it solved for me:I am in control of what the AI sees. Everything runs locally, no network calls during conversion, works offline. Nothing reaches an AI except what I paste there myself.Accidental secret leaks. If the steps I'm copying contain something that looks like a password or API key, the copy stops and asks. One click replaces the values with placeholders. It's a heuristic scan, so a safety net, not a guarantee, but it has caught real leaks for me.Read-proofing code before it goes back into FileMaker. Whatever the AI changed comes back as plain text I can actually read and check. The plugin also round-trips every conversion against itself before writing to the clipboard; a conversion that doesn't survive its own check refuses instead of pasting something corrupted.Mechanics: select scripts as batches or single, or script steps, ⌘⇧C — the clipboard now carries the script as text, paste it anywhere (any editor, any AI, git). Copy the edited text, ⌘⇧V in the Script Workspace — it converts back and pastes as real scripts or steps.For AI: there's a calc function that copies the text-format spec (it does not contain your context!), so an AI can write new scripts from scratch in that format too.Beta: free, macOS 14+, FileMaker 2025/2026 (older versions untested). If it might be useful for you, sign up at https://fmscriptbridge.com and I'll reply with the plugin. Windows version is in progress.If something breaks or converts oddly, there is a bug report feature (you control what is reported)I will be thankful for your feedback.Victor
