Review of "Clipboard History" version 1.0 (2)

Details Page Preview

Clipboard access: this extension reads the system clipboard every time its contents change, and records what it reads in a history stored locally under ~/.cache/clipboard-history@manouchehr/. Nothing is sent over the network, and clipboard data is never shared with any third party. Content marked as sensitive by password managers such as KeePassXC, Bitwarden and KWallet is not recorded. A Windows-style clipboard history panel for GNOME Shell. Open it from the panel icon, or assign a keyboard shortcut of your own in the extension preferences — no shortcut is set by default. Super+V is the binding this panel is modelled on; note that GNOME assigns it to the message tray out of the box, so you would need to free it there first. Features: • Keeps a scrollable history of everything you copy — text, links, and images • Image entries show inline thumbnail previews • Pin frequently used entries so they are never evicted from history • Search your text history as you type • Auto-paste: pick an entry and it is inserted straight into the focused application • Emoji, Kaomoji, and Symbols tabs for inserting characters that are awkward to type • Full RTL support — Persian and Arabic text renders and aligns correctly • Configurable history size, and one-click clearing of the current tab that keeps pinned entries

extensions should not access the clipboard directly

Direct clipboard access via `St.Clipboard.get_default()` requires reviewer scrutiny.
