Cubby is the clipboard history Windows should have shipped. It keeps copied text, images, files, and screenshots searchable after restarts, while offline OCR lets you find a screenshot by the words inside it. Everything stays encrypted on your PC: no account, no cloud, no clipboard telemetry. Open it with a shortcut, search, and paste.

What did GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra and Luna unlock that made your launch possible?

I used GPT-5.6 Sol to help ship Cubby’s Windows-specific Rust/Tauri implementation. It helped trace clipboard and focus edge cases across Rust and React, design a crash-recoverable local OCR queue, add regression tests, and review dependency and CodeQL findings. It also helped prepare the open-source launch and contributor workflow. The shipped desktop app does not call an AI service; its OCR, storage, and clipboard processing remain entirely local.

Hey Product Hunt, I’m Tyler, the maker of Cubby. I built it because Win+V is close to being useful, but it forgets the things I actually need later, especially screenshots. Cubby is a Windows 11 clipboard history that: ✓ Keeps copied text, images, files, and screenshots after restarts ✓ Uses Windows’ offline OCR to make text inside screenshots searchable ✓ Stores history encrypted on your PC ✓ Requires no account and sends clipboard content nowhere ✓ Supports pins, folders, ignored apps, and remote-session workflows Cubby began as a GPL fork of PastePaw. I preserved the attribution and license, then rebuilt major parts around reliability, privacy, Windows-native behavior, and OCR. The moment I care about is simple: copy a screenshot today, remember three words weeks later, search those words, and get the screenshot back. Cubby is free and open source. I’d especially love feedback on OCR accuracy, the cursor-positioned flyout, and which Windows apps or clipboard formats you use most.

The offline OCR and no-account angle is strong, especially for screenshots that usually disappear into the clipboard void. I'd highlight retention and cleanup controls a bit more, because with a clipboard tool people will want to know how fast they can clear sensitive history or exclude certain apps.
