Local MCP server for Paste. Give Claude, Codex, Cursor, and other AI tools access to your Mac's clipboard history and pinboards — without anything leaving your device.
Your assistant can search your clipboard items, pull one into context, or save its output to a pinboard.
Use add-mcp to connect Paste to all your installed AI apps:
npx add-mcp @pasteapp/mcpThe first time an app uses Paste, it'll ask you to authenticate and allow access.
Alternatively, connect Paste to each app manually:
claude mcp add paste -- npx -y @pasteapp/mcpcodex mcp add paste -- npx -y @pasteapp/mcp
You can also connect any app right inside Paste. Open Settings → MCP & AI Tools, click Connect AI Tool, and choose your app — Paste does the rest.
Paste MCP runs locally on your Mac. Your clipboard items only go to the AI apps you approve. You can revoke access anytime.
The AI tool says Paste isn't available. Make sure Paste is running and MCP is enabled in Settings → MCP & AI Tools.
Tools don't show up after connecting. Fully quit and reopen your AI app so it relaunches the server.
