The easiest way to use this is runescope.app — nothing to install, works on any device, installable as an app from the browser itself. It works out what to flip with the cash and Grand Exchange slots you actually have, keeps a journal of every trade you make, and later tells you which of those plans were worth following. It also handles High Alchemy, skilling profit, and boss gear checklists.
This repository is that same toolkit's Windows desktop build — a separate window sharing one journal with the site, for anyone who'd rather have it sitting beside the game than in a browser tab. New companion features land on the website first; see Get the app for how the two compare.
Nothing plays the game for you.
Without signing in, the app is fully offline: your journal stays on your PC, and GE Flipper, the Trade Journal, High Alchemy and skilling all work against live market prices.
Sign in and two things change: RuneLite data reaches this app through runescope.app instead of a local folder (the RuneLite Plugin Hub doesn't allow a plugin that feeds an app on the same machine, so the plugin posts to a web service instead), and your journal — manual trades and tracked positions — mirrors the same account's journal on the website, syncing within a minute either direction.
| Page | What it's for |
|---|---|
| GE Flipper | Works out what to buy right now with the GP and free slots you have. |
| Watchlist | Keeps the items you care about in one table: margin after tax, ROI, volume, how recently they traded. |
| Trade Journal | Every position from offer to payout, including partial fills, with profit that accounts for GE tax. |
| Performance | Looks back at your journal and tells you which strategies and items actually made you money. |
| RuneLite activity | Pulls your real GE fills in from the companion plugin so you don't have to type them out. |
| Alch Finder | What's worth high-alching today, after nature runes and after what it costs to buy. |
| Skilling Profit | 83 skilling methods across 10 skills, priced off the live market. |
| PvM Readiness | Compares your gear, bank, and levels against boss checklists: what you can do now, and what you're missing. |
Every page that needs market data shares the same copy of it. The app fetches prices quietly on launch and every five minutes after that. Refresh market grabs them immediately without the window locking up, and everything on screen updates together.
Most people are better served by installing runescope.app straight from the browser — same tools, no "unknown publisher" warning, and it's where new companion features show up first. This section is for the separate Windows build.
The latest release has two builds:
| Build | Best for | What you get |
|---|---|---|
Setup .exe (recommended) |
Most people | Normal installer, Start Menu entry, optional desktop shortcut, uninstaller, and updates that install themselves. |
Portable .zip |
A USB stick or a folder you keep | Unzip it anywhere and run OSRS Toolkit.exe. Nothing is installed. |
You don't need Python, PowerShell, or anything else installed first. The builds aren't code-signed yet, so Windows may warn you about an Unknown publisher. Only download from this repository's Releases page.

Type in how much GP you want to put to work, say how many slots are free (1–8), and pick Quick, Balanced, or Overnight. It plans those slots as one set, not just the top rows of a list.
- It decides how much of each item to buy from your cash, your slot count, the four-hour buy limit, how much the item really trades, and how much risk the strategy you picked allows.
- Before trusting a price it checks the latest completed trades against the five-minute and one-hour averages.
- Items get dropped for prices that are too old, trading that's happening on only one side, prices moving around too much, profit that's too thin, or a margin too tight to survive the price slipping against you.
- For each pick you see the buy and sell prices to offer, the most you should safely buy, profit after tax, ROI, how much traded in the last hour, the buy limit, the best case, and a confidence score for how solid the underlying data is.
- It tells you how much of your GP it used and how much it deliberately left sitting. Leftover cash means nothing else cleared the checks, not that it ran out of ideas.
- Double-click any row for the full price breakdown. Send one offer, or the whole set, to the journal in a click.
- Don't fancy the top pick? Recommend something else swaps it for the next-best combination, and won't reuse anything it's already suggested this session.
The prices shown are trades that already happened, not offers currently sitting in the GE. Confidence is about how good that data is — it is not a promise the offer will fill or make money. The Price history tab shows roughly the last 75 days of six-hour average buy and sell prices, fetched in the background the first time you open it.
Open an item from GE Flipper or Alch Finder and you can add it to the watchlist, where it stays until you remove it. Double-click a saved row for its full latest, five-minute, and one-hour figures, or drop it from the list there.
Anything you track arrives as Pending buy, keeping the quantity, strategy, and target prices it was suggested with. From there it moves through Bought, Listed for sale, Partially sold, Completed, or Cancelled.
- All eight GE slots sit above the journal, laid out the way the game lays them out, colour-coded for buying, selling, and done-and-waiting-to-collect.
- When a buy fills and the item is yours to sell, the slot and its journal row flash yellow together. The same flash marks a sale filling, and any rows a newly tracked plan just created. A cancelled offer doesn't flash — you cancelled it, you already know. If it happens while you're in-game, the sidebar holds a dot until you come back and look, then plays it.
- While the Grand Exchange is buying or selling something, the journal picks out the one price that trade is working towards, in blue: the buy price for a buy, the ask for a sale, on every row for that item. It holds for the whole trade — from the "Set up offer" box opening while you type, through the offer filling, until you collect the slot — and it doesn't care whether you're still standing at the GE while that happens.
- Click a GE slot to jump to that item's journal row. If your filters were hiding it, they open up.
- Record as many buy fills and sale fills as you need, at whatever quantities and prices you got. Both sides average out by quantity.
- Cancelled a buy halfway through? Set Quantity acquired to what actually filled and mark it Bought rather than Cancelled, and the stock you did get carries on through Listed for sale, Partially sold, and Completed.
- See your average buy and sale price, what's left to sell, and the realized result with GE tax taken off.
- Colour-coded statuses, a filter for active trades or any single status, and sorting by status in the order trades actually happen instead of alphabetically.
- Narrow the summary cards and finished rows to today, this week, this month, this year, a rolling range, or all time. Trades still in progress stay on screen whatever you pick.
- Projections are labelled as projections. Realized profit and loss is signed and colour-coded, so you can tell at a glance which is which.
- The original suggestion stays next to what really happened, even long after the market has moved.
- Double-click any row to update it. Trades you did without the toolkit can be typed in by hand.
- Realized profit, win rate, capital traded, and how many positions need attention are all visible at the top.
- Overnight positions keep the targets they were given, and get checked once a day against current suggestions when the market data is fresh enough. Quick and Balanced targets never move on their own — instead, a Listed for sale or Partially sold position gets flagged once your asking price is 2% or more above what the market now supports, because an ask that far out probably isn't going to fill.
- Export CSV writes out every tracked position and manual entry, ignoring whatever filters you currently have on.
The stats only count trades that have actually returned money, partially sold ones included. Cancelled positions that never sold anything are left out of win rate entirely.
Your journal lives in a local database that survives app updates. The app keeps the last ten startup backups, can find and move your data if an older version left it somewhere else, and Settings → Data lets you put the database file wherever you want it.
The toolkit suggests a strategy and some target prices. The journal records what you really got. Performance puts the two side by side.
- By strategy. Realized profit, win rate, return on capital, and typical hold time for each strategy you've traded under — your results against your results, not the strategy descriptions against each other.
- By item. Which items actually make you money. Items you've flipped once are hidden unless you ask for them, since one flip tells you almost nothing.
- Plan vs. actual. The buy and sell targets you were given against the prices you really filled at, weighted by quantity, plus what those targets promised on the quantity that sold versus what it really made after tax.
Every number here comes from fills you actually recorded; a projection never counts as a result. Return on capital is weighted by how much money was tied up, so one big flip doesn't get averaged away by a small lucky one, and a half-sold position only counts the half that sold. Buying below your target is shown as the win it is, not as missing the mark.
The period filter and the history behind it match the Trade Journal exactly, so the two pages can never tell you different things about the same trade. Trades you typed in yourself show up under Manual entry; they never had a plan, so they sit out of Plan vs. actual. A position started straight from a RuneLite offer uses that offer's own price as its target, so by definition it shows no drift on the buy side.
No. Everything that reads the market works on its own, and you can keep the journal by hand. The plugin is there so you don't have to type in what you just did in-game.
Works without it:
- GE Flipper, Watchlist, Alch Finder, and Skilling Profit, in full. They only need prices.
- Hiding skilling methods above your levels — that's a public hiscores lookup on your display name, nothing to install.
- The whole Trade Journal, as long as you record buys and sells yourself. Statuses, partial fills, tax, filters, and CSV export all behave the same.
- Performance, in full, on whatever you've recorded. A plan you tracked from GE Flipper still gets graded against fills you typed in by hand.
- The yellow flash when you track a new plan.
- Themes, backups, moving the database, and updates.
Needs the plugin:
- Fills recorded for you — every buy and sell, partial or complete, including while the app is shut.
- Positions that open the moment you place an offer, and move to Listed for sale when you list something.
- The live eight-slot Grand Exchange panel above the journal.
- The yellow flash when a buy fills or a sale closes out.
- The blue price highlight that follows a trade from the offer box to collecting the slot.
- The RuneLite activity page itself, and player-to-player trade records (a second switch, also off by default).
- PvM Readiness verdicts. Without gear sync every boss reads Unknown — you still get the checklists, the requirements, and the GP/hr estimates, just not whether you can do it.
What the plugin never does: log into anything, click anything, or change your offers. It does send trade events — that is its entire purpose — but only to the account you paired it with, over a connection it authenticates itself, and never anywhere else.
Install and enable the separate OSRS Toolkit Sync companion plugin, sign in to runescope.app, and generate a pairing token on your profile there for the plugin, and a separate desktop access token for this app under Settings → Website. Your GE fills — partial and complete — arrive at the website while RuneLite is running, even if this app is shut, and come across next time you open the toolkit.
The plugin no longer writes to a folder on this PC, and this app no longer reads one: the
RuneLite Plugin Hub doesn't accept a plugin that feeds an app on the same machine, so the
plugin posts to a small sync service, the website collects from that, and this app reads from
the website. Nothing crosses directly between the plugin and this app. Without a desktop
access token entered, this app has nothing to read yet — it does not fall back to
~/.runelite/osrs-toolkit even if an older plugin build left events sitting there.
- Fills are acknowledged by ID once imported, so nothing gets imported twice if something has to retry.
- You get the character, whether it was a buy or a sell, the item, quantity, coins, which slot, the price you set, and where the offer had got to.
- All the fills from one GE offer collapse into a single row that updates itself, rather than a new row every time a few more items trickle in.
- Filter to everything, GE fills only, or player trades, with details and the ability to delete.
- Player-to-player trade tracking is off unless you turn it on, and only records completed trades.
- Journal positions start the moment you place an offer, not when it fills: a buy offer opens a Pending buy for the full amount straight away, and putting something you already bought up for sale moves it to Listed for sale.
- If a buy fill arrives for something you weren't tracking, it starts a position sized to the whole order — so the rest of that order keeps landing on the same row instead of appearing out of nowhere once everything has filled.
- The plugin also reports where you're standing in the Grand Exchange, which is how the journal knows which row the game is currently asking you about. It's part of GE tracking and stops when that stops.
- PvM gear sync is off unless you turn it on. With it on, opening your bank in-game records your worn gear, inventory, bank, and levels for the PvM Readiness page.
- The app knows whether you're online, and looks your character up on the public hiscores.
None of it clicks anything, touches your offers, talks to game worlds, or asks for your Jagex login. What it does send, once signed in, is trade and position data — to the account you signed into, nowhere else — which is the trade this makes for reaching your journal from a phone or another PC. Stay signed out and everything is exactly as before: local files, nothing sent anywhere. It also can't tell you about trades you made before installing it, while it was switched off, or on mobile and other clients that don't run the plugin.
Alch Finder assumes you'll pay the highest recent price buyers have actually paid — across the latest, five-minute, and one-hour data — and takes today's nature rune cost off the top. The Safer, Balanced, and Show all settings control how old and how thinly traded a result is allowed to be. Suggested quantity is limited by your budget, a sensible share of the hourly volume, the GE buy limit, and the 1,200 casts you can realistically get through in an hour.
High Level Alchemy needs Magic 55, and every item listed needs the same thing, so there's no pointless Magic 55 column taking up space.
83 processing and gathering methods across 10 skills: Cooking, Crafting, Fishing, Fletching, Herblore, Hunter, Magic, Mining, Smithing, and Woodcutting.
- Search by method, filter by skill, show only the profitable ones, or connect a character to hide everything above its levels on the hiscores.
- Supplies are costed at what you'd realistically pay; output is valued at what you'd realistically get, after GE tax.
- Shows input cost, output value, profit per action, a realistic actions-per-hour rate, estimated GP per hour, the level you need, and how old the oldest price used was.
- Every method links to a real OSRS Wiki training guide.
- Notes flag the things that ruin the maths: burn rates, fixed fees, staves and tools you need, Wilderness risk, and rates that depend on your route, gear, competition, or how closely you're watching.
These are realistic baselines, not promises. Buy a few supplies and sell a few outputs before you commit a big stack to anything.
Turn on PvM gear sync in the RuneLite plugin settings and open your bank in-game. Next time the toolkit imports, it checks your worn gear, inventory, bank, and levels against hand-written checklists for 20 bosses: Vorkath, Zulrah, General Graardor, Kree'arra, Cerberus, King Black Dragon, Giant Mole, Barrows, Kalphite Queen, Dagannoth Kings, Corporeal Beast, Thermonuclear Smoke Devil, Kraken, Alchemical Hydra, Grotesque Guardians, Sarachnis, Vet'ion, Callisto, Venenatis, and Chaos Elemental.
- Ready or not ready for each boss, exactly which levels and which items you're short, and a rough GP/hr.
- That GP/hr takes live prices for prayer potions and food off a community estimate of what the boss drops, so it moves as prices move. Hover a row to see the sums. The requirements and the loot estimate are hand-curated community numbers, not a real drop simulation — use them as a starting point, not the final word.
- Gear is matched by name across what you're wearing, carrying, and banking. If it's one bank trip away, it counts.
- Double-click a boss to open its Wiki page and check the requirements yourself.
Market data fetched • 14:03:03 means the app got the newest data from the OSRS Wiki price API at that time. It does not mean every item traded at 14:03:03.
Quiet items might not have traded for half an hour, two hours, or longer. The Oldest trade, Buy trade age, and Oldest trade used columns show how old the real trades behind each result are. For a skilling method, that's whichever ingredient or output has gone longest without trading — a fresh download can still show old prices; that reflects the item, not a bug.
Prices are downloaded once and shared by every page. Refreshing by hand greys out the refresh buttons until it's done, leaves the window usable, and redraws whatever page you're on. If the API is down, the app falls back to the last copy it saved and says so with Cached market data loaded.
- Money reads the way you'd expect. Profit is green, real losses are red, zero is neither. What you spent on supplies isn't dressed up as a loss.
- Tables behave. They spread out in a big window, stay readable in a small one, scroll sideways smoothly, and every column sorts.
- The interface is all of a piece — buttons, dropdowns, checkboxes, and scrollbars that match each other and the theme you picked.
- Search works like search. A clear button when there's something to clear, Escape to empty it, and the usual copy and paste shortcuts.
- Keyboard shortcuts.
Ctrl+1toCtrl+7for the seven pages in sidebar order,F5to refresh prices — check one number and get back to the game. - Four themes: Dark, Midnight, Light, and Old School. That last one is carved stone panels, square corners, and the game's own orange, so the app doesn't look like it wandered in from another program.
- Character lookup. Type a display name to pull total level and filter skilling methods by it. It reads the public hiscores; it never logs into anything.
The app quietly checks for a new release when it starts. If you're up to date you'll never know it happened. If there is a new version, a window offers to install it, remind you later, or skip that one. You can also check whenever you like from Settings → About. Either way it downloads from the official GitHub release and checks it against GitHub's own SHA-256 before replacing anything.
An installed copy updates itself: it closes, writes the new version into the same folder, and reopens on it — no installer to click through. An all-users install stays all-users and a per-user install stays per-user, so you never end up with a stray second copy. Portable copies are the exception: they get offered the setup wizard instead, which installs a proper copy and leaves the portable folder alone.
After an update, a What's new window shows that version's changes once, straight from the bundled changelog. It's still there in Settings → About afterwards.
Your journal, imported trades, settings, watchlists, and cached prices all live in local folders on your PC — nothing signed in, nothing sent anywhere. Sign in under Settings → Website with a token from your runescope.app profile and your journal — manual trades and tracked positions — also mirrors to that account, so a phone or another PC can see the same one. Prices come from the OSRS Wiki API, update checks from GitHub Releases, and character lookups from the public hiscores. OSRS Toolkit never asks for or stores a Jagex password, bank PIN, authenticator code, or anything else that gets you into the game. If you find a security problem, the security policy says how to report it.
- Install the app, or unzip the portable version.
- Open OSRS Toolkit. Prices load on their own.
- Put the GP you want to trade with in Cash stack and set how many GE slots are free.
- Pick Quick, Balanced, or Overnight, then look over the targets, sizes, and confidence.
- Track the set you like, then go and place the offers in-game and be patient with them.
- Record what fills by hand, or install the companion RuneLite plugin and let it do it for you.
Prices come from the OSRS Wiki real-time price API. GE prices move, odd trades can skew what the data shows, and an offer at a suggested price may simply never fill. Everything here is an estimate, not guaranteed profit.
