Fix Ctrl+V paste in standalone — skip macOS WKWebView paste prompt#65
Merged
Conversation
…e prompt navigator.clipboard.readText() pops a "Paste from <App>" confirmation menu at the cursor on macOS WKWebView every time it's invoked from JS, which defeats the point of a paste shortcut. Route text reads through the sidecar (pbpaste / Get-Clipboard / xclip / wl-paste) the same way files and images already work, and accept either Ctrl+V or Cmd+V so the shortcut matches user muscle memory on every platform.

Now that the standalone reads clipboard text natively, the file-first ordering no longer protects against the WKWebView paste prompt and can run alongside the text read. Image stays sequential since it allocates a temp file. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
navigator.clipboard.readText()pops that menu every time it's invoked from JS on WKWebView.pbpaste/Get-Clipboard -Raw/xclip/wl-paste), mirroring how files and images are already read natively. The standalone never callsnavigator.clipboard.readText()again.doPaste— they're independent IPC roundtrips and the old file-first ordering was only there to avoid the popup, which the native read now removes.Test plan
