README

Pastea MCP

Local MCP server for Pastea. Give Claude, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and other AI tools access to your Mac's clipboard history — without anything leaving your Mac.

Your assistant can search what you copied, pull a clip into context (including the text Pastea reads inside your screenshots), and put a clip back on the clipboard for you to paste.

Pastea runs the MCP server itself, on 127.0.0.1 only. This package is the thin, dependency-free bridge that AI apps launch: it finds Pastea, asks it for access once — you click Allow in Pastea — and relays messages over stdio.

Install

Claude Desktop

One click from Pastea: open Settings → MCP & AI Tools, turn on Enable MCP, and click Claude Desktop. Claude Desktop opens with the Pastea extension ready to install.

Or find Pastea in Claude Desktop under Settings → Extensions → Browse extensions, or download pastea-mcp-<version>.mcpb from the latest release and double-click it.

The first time Claude uses it, Pastea asks you to allow the connection.

Every other AI app

Use add-mcp to connect Pastea to all your installed AI apps at once:

npx add-mcp @pastea/mcp

Or connect each app yourself:

Claude Code

claude mcp add pastea -- npx -y @pastea/mcp

Codex

codex mcp add pastea -- npx -y @pastea/mcp

Cursor

VS Code

Anything else that runs stdio MCP servers:

{ "mcpServers": { "pastea": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@pastea/mcp"] } } }

The first time an app uses Pastea, Pastea shows "Allow <app> to use your clipboard history?" — click Allow and the tools appear.

Connect from Pastea

Every app above can also be connected from inside Pastea — Settings → MCP & AI Tools, click the app's chip. Cursor and VS Code open an install prompt; Claude Code, Windsurf and Codex get the exact command or config to paste, already carrying an access token, so no pairing prompt is needed.

What your assistant can do

Tool	What it does
`search_clips`	Search your clipboard history and lists — text, links, file names, and text recognized in screenshots.
`get_clip`	Read one clip in full, with a thumbnail for pictures.
`list_collections`	List your history and the lists you made, with counts.
`copy_clip`	Put a clip back on the system clipboard, exactly as copied. You paste it yourself with ⌘V.
`pastea_status`	Says whether Pastea is reachable and connected, and what to do if not.

An AI tool can never delete a clip, never pastes into another app, and never sees items Pastea conceals (from password managers).

How pairing works

The bridge ships with no credentials. On first use it asks Pastea for access and Pastea shows **"Allow Claude Desktop to use your c
