PromptPaste turns selected text into customizable AI actions anywhere in GNOME. Create your own actions to transform text or use the selection directly as a prompt, with optional per-action provider, model, and token settings. Preview or automatically paste results back into the active application. Supports local Ollama and multiple cloud AI providers. Selected text is sent only when you explicitly trigger an action.
Note: Binary files aren't shown on the web site. To see all files, please download the extension zipfile.

Where is the git URL? Is this code generated by AI? If so, we have a rule for that: [EGO Review Guidelines: AI](https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#extensions-must-not-be-ai-generated)
The repo is available at [https://github.com/ubaimutl/PromptPaste](https://github.com/ubaimutl/PromptPaste) I used AI assistance while building the initial implementation because this is my first GNOME extension. I reviewed, tested, and iterated on the code myself, and I can explain and maintain it.
