Keka External Helper

The external helper extends the macOS file archiver Keka by providing auxiliary functions that run alongside the main application. It is designed for users who already employ Keka to compress, encrypt, and manage archives, offering additional support for background operations and integration with the operating system. As a macOS‑only component, the helper works directly with Keka’s core features, enabling the creation of archives in multiple formats and the optional encryption of their contents for secure storage or sharing. It is maintained in a stable state and is distributed together with Keka, relying on the same release channels and community resources such as issue tracking, a wiki, and discussion forums.
