Settings

Open the Settings panel three ways:

• Gear icon in the bottom-right of the overlay footer
• ⌘, keyboard shortcut (macOS convention)
• Tray menu → Settings…

All changes save instantly to ~/Library/Application Support/com.clipboarder.app/settings.json.

Sections

• Hotkey — record a custom global shortcut
• Launch at login — start clipboarder when you log in
• History limits — cap retention by count and age
• Privacy & exclusions — keep sensitive apps' clipboard out of history

Settings file format

{
  "hotkey": "CommandOrControl+Shift+V",
  "launch_at_login": true,
  "max_items": 500,
  "auto_clear_days": 30,
  "excluded_apps": ["com.1password.1password"]
}

Edit by hand if you want — clipboarder reloads the file on every save command. Just keep the JSON valid.
