Why does the browser ask for permission?

Reading clipboard content requires the 'clipboard-read' permission, which browsers gate behind a user prompt for privacy.

Is my clipboard data sent anywhere?

No. All clipboard items are stored only in your browser's localStorage and never leave your device.

How do I pin an item?

Click the pin icon on any saved item. Pinned items appear at the top and are excluded from bulk-clear.

Can I search my history?

Yes — use the search box to filter saved items by their text content.

What's the difference from clipboard-manager?

This tool uses the live Clipboard API to read your system clipboard on demand. clipboard-manager focuses on text you manually paste into the tool.

About this tool

Clipboard History Manager lets you build a personal clipboard history in your browser. Click 'Save Current Clipboard' to capture what's on your clipboard (the browser will ask for Clipboard read permission the first time). Saved items are shown with timestamps and can be searched, pinned to the top, copied back to clipboard, or deleted. Use bulk-clear to wipe non-pinned history. Everything is stored in localStorage — nothing is sent to any server.

How to use

1 Copy some text to your clipboard as usual (Ctrl+C / Cmd+C).
2 Click 'Save Current Clipboard' — grant permission if prompted.
3 The snippet appears in the history list with a timestamp.
4 Use the search box to find older items.
5 Pin important snippets, copy them back, or bulk-clear non-pinned history.
