Your clipboard
and your apps,
one keystroke away.

The clipboard holds one thing. You copy hundreds.

Every copy overwrites the last. The command you ran ten minutes ago, the path you keep retyping, the snippet you needed twice — gone the moment you copy something else. So you switch windows, scroll back, and copy it again.

Built to run without your mouse.

Every action has a key. Open, search, copy, switch tabs, switch apps, dismiss — your hands never leave home row. Every shortcut is configurable.

From passing history to a kit you keep.

Pin the snippets you reuse so they outlive the history limit. Reorder them, label them, hide sensitive ones. Group related pins into named sessions — a deploy runbook, a set of prompts, the commands for one project.

Filter as you type. Find it in two keys.

Search runs across pinned items and history at once. Jump straight to the search box with a shortcut, narrow the list instantly, and act without leaving the keyboard. Right-click any item for context actions — copy, label, or pin it directly into a session.

List, find and reach any running app.

A second global hotkey opens every app you have running, each with its own icon. Type to filter by name, then activate with Enter, a number key, or a click. The same keyboard-first habit, applied to your whole desktop.

Your clipboard never leaves the machine.

History is stored locally in a SQLite database on your disk, and so are the app switch counts behind the frecency ordering. There's no account, no cloud sync, and no clipboard content sent anywhere. ClipX is a quiet local tool — what you copy stays with you.

Native on three desktops. Honest about how it's built.
