ClipsX

ClipsX is a free, open-source, cross-platform clipboard manager designed to help you capture, find, understand, and reuse what you copy.

Unlike basic clipboard history tools, ClipsX preserves multiple representations of copied content, including text, HTML, Markdown, images, links, tables, and files. Rich previews let you inspect content and choose the format you want to reuse.

Key features: Rich clipboard history: Save and search copied text, images, links, files, and formatted content. Semantic Search: Find previously copied information by meaning, even when you don't remember the exact words. AI-powered Recall: Ask questions about selected clipboard history and trace answers back to their source clips. Extensible workflows: Use sandboxed WebAssembly extensions to inspect, transform, and interact with clipboard content. OCR support: Extract searchable text from images on supported systems. Smart organization: Organize clips with pins, favorites, tags, notes, and filters. AI assistant integration: Connect compatible assistants through MCP to retrieve authorized clipboard context. Local-first privacy: Clipboard history remains on your device. Core functionality works without an account, and local AI models are supported through Ollama.

ClipsX is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux/X11. Its desktop application is open source under the Apache 2.0 license.

Whether you're a developer, researcher, writer, or someone who frequently works with copied information, ClipsX helps turn clipboard history into a searchable and reusable resource.
