Before you connect
Questions about clipboard-native.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
What clipboard managers work with the Clipboard History Searcher MCP?
You can use it with Ditto, CopyQ, and Maccy. Just export your history from any of those apps as a JSON or plain text file.
How does the Clipboard History Searcher MCP find old links?
It parses your exported history file and lets your AI client search through it. You can ask for specific keywords, like 'GitHub' or 'login,' to find the exact URL you need.
Is the Clipboard History Searcher MCP safe for my private data?
Yes, it works with files you choose to export locally. The Connector doesn't upload your history to a cloud; it just lets your AI client read the file you provide.
Can the Clipboard History Searcher MCP handle very large clipboard histories?
It's designed to be token-safe. It handles the heavy lifting by showing your AI client up to 200 clips at a time, which prevents your agent from getting overwhelmed by huge files.
Does the Clipboard History Searcher MCP work with plain text files?
Yes, it supports both JSON exports from Maccy and CopyQ, as well as plain text exports from Ditto.
How do I use the Clipboard History Searcher MCP to find phone numbers?
Once you provide your export file, you can simply ask your AI client to 'find all phone numbers' or 'find the number for [Name].' It will scan the history and list them for you.
Which clipboard managers are supported?
Any manager that exports as JSON or plain text: Ditto (Windows), CopyQ (cross-platform), Maccy (macOS), Clipy (macOS).
Does it capture images from clipboard?
No, this parser focuses on textual clipboard entries to save AI context tokens.
Is my clipboard data sent to the cloud?
No. Parsed locally. Only text entries are sent to AI context during your session.
