Clipboard, selection & cursor

Clipboard

{clipboard} inserts whatever you last copied.

FYI: {clipboard}

Use offset to reach further back in your clipboard history. 0 is the most recent item (the default):

{clipboard}              →  most recent item
{clipboard offset="1"}  →  second most recent item
{clipboard offset="2"}  →  third most recent item

{selection} inserts text that was selected in the current app at expansion time.

> {selection}

—

This turns a selected passage into a blockquote with a signature — useful for quoting in email replies.

{cursor} marks where the cursor lands after a snippet expands. Without it, the cursor goes to the end.

Dear {cursor},

Thank you for reaching out.

After expansion the cursor is placed inside the greeting, ready for you to type the recipient’s name.

Each snippet can have at most one {cursor}. If you need to fill in multiple spots, use {argument} instead.

{uuid} inserts a randomly generated UUID (version 4):

id: {uuid}    →    id: 7f3a1c2e-4b8d-4e9f-a012-3456789abcde

{snippet name="…"} expands another snippet inline:

{snippet name="email-footer"}

Constraints:

Snippets cannot be nested recursively — the referenced snippet cannot itself contain a {snippet} placeholder
Referenced snippets are expanded as plain text (no further {snippet} resolution)
