What the publisher says
From the Clipboard repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
mcp-clipboard
An MCP server that gives your AI assistant direct access to your system clipboard: read what you copied, or write clean text straight to it. Works with any MCP-compatible client, including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others.

Why This Exists
Pasting loses structure
When you copy cells from Google Sheets or Excel and paste into a chat input, the tabular structure (rows and columns) is destroyed. It arrives as a flat string with no delimiters. The model has to guess where one cell ends and the next begins, and it often guesses wrong.
mcp-clipboard preserves it. Instead of pasting, tell your assistant to "read my clipboard." The server reads the clipboard directly, detects tabular data from the HTML that spreadsheet apps put on the clipboard, and returns it as a properly formatted Markdown table, JSON, or CSV. No structure lost, no guessing.
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
