05 Guides and compatibility updates
Four Mac AI clients. One clear evidence trail. Start with the current status for ChatGPT Desktop/Codex mode, Tencent WorkBuddy, Doubao and Kimi, then learn how to choose, verify, share and recover a ready-made .cctheme package.
01 Featured client status guide Mac client compatibility · four evidence stages
Compare the current CC Theme status for ChatGPT Desktop with Codex mode, Tencent WorkBuddy, Doubao and Kimi before choosing a Mac theme package.
02 ChatGPT Desktop customization · native first
Use native Appearance for basic choices, then choose a ready CC Theme package for image or video backgrounds in ChatGPT Desktop, including Codex mode.
03 ChatGPT Desktop background for Mac · ready-made packages
Add a ready-made ChatGPT Desktop background on Mac with a versioned .cctheme package, then check readability, compatibility and the native restore path.
04 ChatGPT Desktop · Codex mode · semantic readability
Fix unreadable text across chat, code, diff, sidebar and status surfaces in ChatGPT Desktop, including Codex mode, before applying a background theme.
05 Reproducible theme sharing
Share the published package URL, checksum, target evidence and restore boundary instead of a prompt or screenshot alone.
06 Product-positioning explanation · not a search-volume claim
Compare a versioned .cctheme package with recreating a look from a reference image and prompt across consistency, tokens, tuning, compatibility, integrity and recovery.
07 ChatGPT Desktop for Mac · Codex mode companion
Prepare Xiaogou, the available custom Codex pet on Mac, through CC Theme and choose it manually in ChatGPT Desktop's Codex mode.
Clear guidance, precise scope These guides distinguish public package targets from validation and experimental lanes. ChatGPT Desktop/Codex mode and Tencent WorkBuddy are public Mac targets today; Doubao is in adapter validation, and Kimi remains experimental until Manager registration and QA evidence pass. Native colors, typography, layout and product behavior remain owned by each client; Intel Mac, Windows and Claude are outside the current scope.
