CLUSTER BAR-CLIPBOARD-MACOS · 61 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-13

macOS clipboard managers

This cluster consists of native macOS clipboard history apps that live in the menu bar, store copied text, images, and sometimes files locally, and offer searchable history with keyboard-shortcut paste. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — only 2 dated entries exist before the index start, so the cluster's timeline predates the index or its members are undated. On traction, vibebar leads with 37 stars, followed by Moxia with 18 and stowpaste with 9.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
