clippy

Clippy is a clipboard manager for macOS that maintains a searchable history of copied text and images. It sits in the menu bar and allows users to quickly access past clipboard entries via keyboard shortcut (Command+Shift+V by default), making it easy to paste something from hours or days earlier without having to recopy it. Beyond history, Clippy supports custom snippet storage for frequently-used text templates and lets users customize keyboard shortcuts. The app requires accessibility permissions to function properly.</description> <parameter name="recommendation">Clippy appears to be the clipboard manager discussed in the search results, but we could not confirm from the available search results whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. The search results mention installing Clippy via Homebrew and the official site at clipy-app.com, but do not specify the architecture of the current build. Since today is May 2026 and Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in September 2028, you have time to investigate, but you should contact the Clippy developer or check their GitHub repository to confirm whether a native build is available or planned. If Clippy remains Intel-only with no native version forthcoming, consider alternatives like Maccy (free, open-source, actively maintained with native Apple Silicon support) or Paste (a commercial option with confirmed native builds), both of which offer similar clipboard history and snippet functionality and will continue to work after Rosetta 2 is removed.
