Clipy ★ 8914 836 APPLICATION

Clipy is a macOS clipboard extension app that lives in the menu bar. It provides clipboard history management, text snippet storage and quick paste, OCR for image-based clipboard content, and customizable global hotkeys to trigger history menu, snippet editor, or paste actions. The app monitors NSPasteboard using a timer, deduplicates entries, and stores them in a local SQLite database (via GRDB wrapper SQLiteData), with a legacy Realm database still present for migration. UI is built with a mix of SwiftUI (settings panes) and AppKit (snippet editor, menu). Dependency injection via swift-dependencies and reactive storage via swift-sharing are used throughout. The architecture is well-modularized with repository and service layers, extensive unit tests, and a migration system for both database schema and user defaults. However, the project shows signs of drift: legacy Realm code and XIB files persist, localization strings may be out of sync, and the last commit date is anomalous (future date) suggesting the project may be unmaintained despite a large user base.
