I built copyPastelino, a tiny macOS menu bar app that remembers what you copy and lets you paste the right item without breaking your flow.

How it works
Hold Ctrl and tap V to cycle through clipboard history in a small preview near your cursor. Release Ctrl to paste the selected item.
copyPastelino is local-first by design: it works fully offline, with no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking. Everything is stored locally with minimal UI and low overhead.
Beta is now open via external TestFlight:

If you try it, I’d especially love feedback on:
cycling quickly through long text or code snippets
handling images and file paths
any lag, clipping, or crashes
