ganeshmshetty / openclip
An open-source, macOS text action popup for running custom scripts, AI actions, and extensible workflows on selected text.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
- Contextual bar. Appears instantly near your selection with relevant actions (case transform, search, copy/cut, math, or custom scripts).
- Search palette (⌥⌘C). Press hotkey to fuzzy search your entire action catalog.
- Extensions. Write or install custom extensions in JavaScript, Shell, AppleScript, or URL schemes.
- Native & fast. Written in Swift 6 with strict concurrency; lightweight background footprint.
- Optional AI actions. Run text through local Ollama models, Apple Intelligence, or OpenAI/Anthropic keys.
