One possibility is to use [Hammerspoon](https://github.com/Hammerspoon/hammerspoon) with the following configuration:
```
hs.hotkey.bind({ "cmd" }, "Right", function()
local NextSpace = 1
for k, v in pairs(hs.spaces.allSpaces()[hs.screen.mainScreen():getUUID()]) do
if v == hs.spaces.focusedSpace() then
NextSpace = k
end
end
NextSpace = NextSpace+1
~~if (NextSpace == 4) then~~
NextSpace = 1
end
hs.eventtap.keyStroke({ "control" }, string.format("%d", NextSpace))
end)
hs.hotkey.bind({ "cmd" }, "Left", function()
local PrevSpace = 1
for k, v in pairs(hs.spaces.allSpaces()[hs.screen.mainScreen():getUUID()]) do
if v == hs.spaces.focusedSpace() then
PrevSpace = k
end
end
PrevSpace = PrevSpace - 1
if (PrevSpace == 0) then
~~PrevSpace = 3~~
end
hs.eventtap.keyStroke({ "control" }, string.format("%d", PrevSpace))
end)
```
In case one would also like to use mouse/trackpad gestures to circulate through spaces, one can use this newly defined Hammerspoon shortcut in [Jitouch](https://github.com/JitouchApp/Jitouch)
Caveats:
- this answer assumes that `cmd+number` is the shortcut to go to the space of a specific number. If you use another shortcut, you'll need to adjust the code accordingly
~~- this answer assumes that you have 3 spaces. Adjust the numbers in `PrevSpace = 3` and `NextSpace == 4` to match your number of spaces(+1)~~
- the animation when cycling between last/first might look counter intuitive. Switching off all animation with the "reduced motion" option from system preferences might be a solution
