clipmem - clipboard recall for agents
Searchable clipboard history with OCR: local, fast, free
clipmem captures everything you copy and makes it searchable. Text, images, URLs, code snippets, PDFs, nothing gets lost. Unlike other clipboard managers, clipmem is built for developers and AI agents. The CLI makes it easy for your OpenClaw to use. A native SwiftUI menu bar app gives you instant access via global hotkey. Images are OCR'd and searchable. All data stays on your Mac in a local SQLite database. No cloud sync, no accounts, no telemetry. Open source and MIT licensed.
Hey Product Hunt. I built clipmem because I kept losing things I'd copied (code snippets, URLs, error messages) and couldn't find them when I needed them later.
I wanted something that: stored everything locally with zero cloud dependency, was fast enough to search thousands of items instantly, and could be used by AI agents in my workflow (not just a GUI).
So I built it in Rust with a native SwiftUI menu bar app. The CLI speaks JSON, so tools like Claude can search your clipboard history directly. It captures the full pasteboard: text, images, RTF, PDFs, and indexes everything with SQLite FTS5.
It's completely free and open source (MIT). Install with brew install --cask tristanmanchester/tap/clipmem-app.
Would love feedback!
