Stay in the right layout

Focus Input is a native macOS menu bar utility that associates a preferred keyboard input source with an application. When a configured application becomes active, Focus Input selects that source once.

Applications without a rule are left unchanged, and manual source changes remain untouched until you leave and return to the configured application.
