About Clippy
Clippy is an MCP server published by the GitHub account neilberkman. Copy AI-generated content to the macOS clipboard: rich Gmail-ready email drafts, text, and files
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the MCP bundle package https://github.com/neilberkman/clippy/releases/download/v1.9.1/clippy_1.9.1.mcpb, with no version pinned.
It asks for no keys or passwords.
Version 1.9.1 was published on 4 September 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 8 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 5 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
