Paste-vlv is a native macOS clipboard manager built with Swift, AppKit, SwiftUI, and Core Data. It lives in the menu bar, captures clipboard history locally, and helps you quickly find, organize, and reuse copied text, links, images, and files.
It includes search, keyboard navigation, quick paste, favorites, pins, color-coded pinboards, configurable retention, pause/resume capture, English and Spanish UI, and JSON backup/restore for grouped text pinboards.
Paste-vlv is local-first: no account, no subscription, no server, and no cloud sync enabled. Clipboard history stays on your Mac.
Current public builds are ad-hoc signed, not Developer ID signed, and not notarized. macOS may show a Gatekeeper warning on first launch.
