The full story

Clipback is an open-source Mac menu bar app: select text anywhere and press Control-Option-Space to save it as a markdown file with its source, or take a screenshot whose text is read on the Mac with Apple's Vision framework. Clips can be tagged and brought back later for spaced review. It needs no internet or AI model to work. It was built with Claude Code in about three days, from the code to app signing, release builds and the launch video.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count). The Claude connector only receives the search words your Claude sends it.
