Every copy overwrites the last one — the address, the code, the color you needed again ten minutes later. Cleft keeps them all. Press ⌘⇧V —CtrlAltV on Windows — andeverything you've ever copied is right there — searchable, organized, and stored only on your machine.

The system clipboard has held exactly one item since 1984. Every copy quietly destroys the previous one — you only notice when it's the one you needed.
The 2FA code that just overwrote the address you spent a minute writing.
Tuesday's hex color. You had it. It was perfect. It's gone.
The same command, re-found and re-copied for the ninth time today.
Cleft is a floating palette, not another window to manage. It shows up over whatever you're doing, hands you the clip, and gets out of the way.
Full-text search across everything you've copied — filter by app, type, tag, or collection. No mouse required for any of it.
Colors get swatches. JSON gets a collapsible tree. SQL, Markdown, URLs, file paths — each clip is detected and previewed as what it is.
Every clip keeps its source — the app, the window, the URL it came from. "That thing I copied from the Stripe docs" is a real search.
IF a clip comes from Figma, THEN put it in Brand Colors. Automation runs at capture time, before you've even opened the palette.
Password-manager output, API keys, one-time codes, card numbers — detected and refused at capture. Not hidden. Never written to disk at all.
Workspaces keep client work, personal projects, and everything else in their own histories. Pin what matters; it never ages out.
Most clipboard tools ask you to trust a privacy policy. Cleft asks you to read the code — audit the capture pipeline line by line before you let it watch anything.
Thirty seconds from download to your first rescued clip. Free, open source, and it never leaves your computer.
