Clipboard History: Everything you copied, one keystroke away

About

Everything you copy, searchable, pinnable and one keystroke from being pasted back. ⌘⇧V opens it from anywhere: type to filter, ↑↓ and Return (or ⌘1 to ⌘9) to paste into the app you were in, ⌥Return to paste as plain text, ⌘P to pin and ⌥⌫ to delete. Formatted text keeps its formatting, and images are kept by the host and pasted back.

Highlight

One keystroke from anything you copied

⌘⇧V opens your history from anywhere. Type to filter, then Return pastes it into the app you were in. ⌥Return pastes it as plain text.

Panel

Pin what you paste every day

Pinned items stay at the top and are never pushed out by new copies.

Highlight

Secrets don't stick around

Copies from password managers are skipped. Anything that looks like a token, key or card number is masked, kept away from agent tools, and dropped after 15 minutes unless you pin it.

Window

See what you copy

The window shows how much you copy, and from which apps.

Run it without opening it.

Every command is in Stackbar's palette, and can have its own hotkey, a stackbar:// link, or a Shortcuts action.

Tools for your AI
