Clipboard history
Cleat keeps every text, image and file you copy in a local database with its source app, and pastes back into the window you came from. Password managers are skipped.
Press ⌘ ⇧ V, or type clip in the palette. Cleat has been recording everything you copied since it launched: text, images and files, with the app it came from and when.
Searching
Type to filter. Text entries match on their content, files on their name. The subtitle shows the source app, how long ago, and the size.
Pasting
Return pastes the entry into the window you were in before you opened Cleat, by putting it on the clipboard and pressing ⌘ V there. That needs Accessibility access; without it, Return copies and you paste yourself. ⌘ ⏎ copies without pasting. ⌘ ⌫ with an empty search field deletes the selected entry.
Transforms
The root palette lists clipboard transforms as commands: paste as plain text, uppercase, lowercase, title case, trimmed, pretty JSON, minified JSON, and slug. Each one changes the current clipboard and pasts the result.
What is skipped
Copies from password managers and anything an app marks as concealed or transient are never recorded. This uses the pasteboard types those apps set, so 1Password, Bitwarden, Keychain and similar are covered without a list to maintain.
Where it lives
~/Library/Application Support/Cleat/cleat.sqlite holds text and file entries. Images are stored next to it in images/. Settings › General shows the count and has a button to clear everything.
Importing
Alfred’s clipboard history can be imported from the palette with Import from Alfred. See Import from Alfred or Raycast.
