Chmod Lookup

Convert between numeric (octal) and symbolic Unix permission notation, in both directions.

Usage

Open the Look up Chmod Mode command and type a mode — or type chmod <mode> straight into Raycast root search (the value fills the command's argument). A leading chmod in the input is ignored, so pasting a full command works too.

Input	Result	Notes
770	rwxrwx---	numeric → symbolic
rwxrwx---	770	symbolic → numeric
4755	rwsr-xr-x	setuid / setgid / sticky bits
drwxr-xr-x	755	ls -l style with file type prefix
120777	lrwxrwxrwx	full octal st_mode incl. file type
6	rw-	single digit
r	4	partial flags

Supported file type prefixes: - (file), d (directory), l (symlink), b, c, p, s.

The detail panel breaks the mode down per class (owner / group / others), shows special bits, the full octal st_mode, and the ready-to-copy chmod command.
