Clipmer
clipmer.app · Install · Changelog
A secrets-aware clipboard manager for Linux. Your clipboard fills up with SSH
commands, API keys, and connection strings — Clipmer lets you mask them before a
screen share, annotate them with notes, and file them into folders, all from a
tray-based popup that never leaves your machine.
Ubuntu · GNOME · Wayland
Features
- Masked entries — stay copyable, but unreadable on screen
- Folders for grouping SSH commands, credentials, and snippets
- Clipboard history up to 200 entries, deduplicated
- Pinned items that survive restarts
- Instant search across content and notes
- Inline notes attached to any entry
- Auto-paste on Wayland via GNOME Shell extension
- Keyboard-first navigation (arrows, Enter, Esc, Tab)
- Dark & light themes with custom accent color
- Adjustable font size (10–18px)
- Minimal view — distraction-free floating UI
- Global shortcut
Ctrl+Shift+D (configurable)
