## About

Minimal Paste is a local-only clipboard manager for Mac that keeps copied text, images, links, files, and colors on the same machine. Open its shelf with ⇧⌘V, search as you type, then paste back into the app you were using.

Pin important clips, group related items, bulk-paste selections, and add folders or subfolders for quick file access. The shelf can sit at the bottom, left, or right of the screen, or open in a window. Password managers are ignored, and there are no accounts, iCloud sync, or other-device transfers.
