Cedarville People Search Raycast Extension #

detail of a user

Search the Cedarville University student and staff directory from Raycast. Look up anyone by name, view their schedule, majors, office, and contact info -- all without opening a browser.

Features #

  • Search by first name, last name, or both
  • Filter by population type (undergraduate, graduate, etc.) or department
  • View class schedules, majors, minors, advisors, and office locations
  • Profile photos loaded automatically
  • Results cached locally for instant fuzzy search
  • Copy email, phone, or ID

Setup #

You need a Cedarville University account to use this extension.

  1. Open the Search Cedarville Directory command
  2. Click Sign In — a small login window will open
  3. Complete SSO login with your Cedarville credentials
  4. The window closes automatically and you're ready to search

Your session cookie is stored in Raycast's local storage. The site's own session only lasts a few hours, so the sign-in window also keeps its SSO session in an owner-only file in the extension's support directory, and renews the site cookie silently in the background when it expires. In practice you sign in once.

Use Sign Out (⌘⇧S) from any result to log out — that clears the stored SSO session too, so the next sign-in asks for your password again.

Note #

This extension is only useful if you have a Cedarville University account. It accesses the same directory available at selfservice.cedarville.edu.
