Clippy
Intelligently handles clipboard operations on macOS, unifying text and file copying for seamless pasting into GUI applications directly from the terminal.
关于
Clippy is a macOS-specific command-line tool designed to overcome the limitations of standard clipboard utilities like `pbcopy`, which often copy file contents rather than file references. It intelligently detects whether you're copying text or files and utilizes the appropriate clipboard format, allowing for seamless pasting of files from your terminal into GUI applications like Slack or email. Part of a 'Terminal-First Clipboard Suite,' Clippy enhances productivity by enabling users to remain in their terminal while managing complex clipboard workflows, including handling recent downloads, piping data as files, and even serving as an MCP server for AI assistants.
