Openclip

Select any text in any app, and OpenClip appears with contextual actions — copy, transform, calculate, AI writing, or custom extensions. Press to open a fuzzy search palette over your entire action library.

Instant contextual popup — select text anywhere and a floating bar appears with the actions that make sense for it. Actions with no live selection (like Copy/Cut) drop out automatically, and a selection-free popup falls back to the current clipboard contents.

Action-search palette — press to turn the bar into a fuzzy search field over the entire action catalog, including disabled actions. Results are ranked by recency, then bar order, so your most-used actions float to the top.

Extensions — install .openclipext packages (JavaScript, AppleScript, shell, URL templates, key presses, Shortcuts, Services) from the built-in store, a file, or by dropping a folder into ~/.openclip/extensions . No compile step — a manifest plus a script is a complete extension.

Custom actions from the GUI — add a web-search URL template or an inline shell script straight from Preferences, no manifest authoring required.

Built-in AI assistant — run selected text through Apple Intelligence, a local Ollama model, or a cloud provider (OpenAI/Claude), or hand the query to your browser. AI presets appear as regular actions in the palette.
