Zmina
Zmina is not just a clipboard manager: it works on the paste itself. Press ⌘⇧V instead of ⌘V, and Zmina looks at what you copied and which app you're pasting into (or which site, in a browser), then offers a short list of actions that fit both: remove tracking codes from a link, wrap code as a code block for chat, redact a token from a log before it reaches a bug report, turn CSV into a Markdown table. Pick one or chain several, see exactly what will change, and it pastes.
It also keeps a searchable history of everything you copy, labelled by type, with syntax highlighting and filters like type:json, has:secret or when:week. Copied files show their contents. Secrets are flagged and masked, and copies from password managers are skipped.
No AI: detectors and rules. Nothing you copy leaves your Mac. No account, no telemetry. One-time purchase, lifetime license, 14-day free trial. Built in Rust with Tauri. macOS 14 or later.

Clipdiary
Clipdiary monitors the clipboard and automatically saves its contents to the clipboard history. The contents of the standard Windows clipboard changes as you use it to copy and paste various types of information. But your data isn't stored for a long time - when you turn off the computer or just copy another piece of information, the data is lost. In most cases, that isn't a problem, but have you ever needed the text you copied 30 minutes or an hour ago? Maybe your computer is acting up and the program you are using hasn't saved the data, or maybe you copied some interesting information from a web page, but got distracted and forgot to paste it where you wanted? Or you may simply want to recall what you were doing on your computer a month or a year ago. There are many cases in which you might want to review your clipboard contents.
