I like my Applescripts and I like Alfred. Being able to run one from the other is great.

What I was quite particular about though was that unless your scripts were somewhere in your home folder (technically as long as they weren’t inside a “System” folder) then they would be found. However if like me you put your Applescripts where Apple tell you they should be, in ~/Library/Scripts then by default Alfred won’t find them. The other reason for putting scripts there is that a bunch of other applications expect them to be there too.

Alfred’s PowerPack rescued me by making plugins available, so I was able to build a plugin that let’s you run your scripts from the proper folder. It is also really easy to install - download the extension that I built, double click it to install it, then when you next launch Alfred you can use the keyword of script and all your scripts will be found.

Here is a screenshot to show the plugin in action:
