What is Paster?

Paster is a native macOS clipboard manager designed for developers who prefer keyboard navigation over mouse interaction. Built in Rust for speed and using local SQLite storage, it offers Vim-style navigation with j/k keys, instant search with /, and Quick Look preview for images and code. The tool prioritizes privacy with zero cloud syncing, no accounts, and no telemetry.

Features include smart exclusion of sensitive apps like password managers, native macOS design matching system aesthetics, and syntax highlighting for code snippets. Available as a one-time purchase for $6.49 with a 7-day free trial. The maker notes it was built with help from Gemini AI for UI components.
