OpenCore Auxiliary Tools (OCAT) — Restored Edition

GUI

This is a restored and cleaned-up edition of the OpenCore Auxiliary Tools (OCAT), originally developed by ic005k.

Since the original repository was abandoned, this project has been painstakingly recreated and rebuilt directly from the original source files. To clean up the codebase and make it fully uniform for the global community, all Chinese language localizations and related assets have been completely removed.

The defining philosophy of OCAT remains untouched: One single OCAT application can manage almost all OpenCore versions, making it a true "All-in-One" solution.

About

OpenCore Auxiliary Tools is a GUI-based Configurator for editing config.plist files for Acidanthera's OpenCore Boot Manager.

Unlike other Configurator apps, OCAT doesn't mess up the config if the Devs of OpenCore add new features/keys to the config file structure. Instead, it adapts and integrates them in the interface automatically.

Key Changes in this Edition

  • Source Restoration: Reassembled, fixed, and compiled directly from the original source code.
  • Code Cleanup: Completely "de-Chinesed" — all Chinese interfaces, menus, and hidden localization clutter have been removed.
  • Dependency Fixes: Removed all broken links and references to external components that were deleted by the original author, ensuring stable builds.
  • Pure Performance: Kept the original smart adaptation system without extra regional bloat.

Features

Besides being a plist Configurator it can do much more:

  • Mount the EFI partition and automatically open the config.plist.
  • Update and migrate configs to the latest specs simply by clicking on the "Save" button. No more copying of keys and manually validating the config is required (huge timesaver).
  • Automatically performs config validation and points to possible conflicts/configuration issues.
  • Sync Feature: check for and apply updates for OpenCore, Resources, and Kexts with a few clicks.
  • Select between Official/Dev Release and Debug builds of OpenCore.
  • Dropdown Menus with suggested Quirks for Intel and AMD CPUs.
  • Preset Menus for ACPI, Kernel, and other lists.
  • Editable list with URLs of Kext Repos.
  • Integrated ASCII < > HEX Converter.
  • Database with complete base configs for Intel and AMD CPUs based on Dortania's OpenCore Install Guide.
  • Ability to generate EFI folders from a config with a single click.
  • Ability to create EFI folder Backups.
  • Update the Database, ACPI-Quirks.txt, Booter-Quirks.txt, Kernel-Quirks.txt and UEFI-Quirks.txt
  • The toolTip.txt translated into English.
