Hey everyone! 👋 I'm the creator of Soma Scratchpad. The problem: If you work with AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, you've probably experienced this — error screenshots getting committed to Git, long prompts that need editing but chat boxes truncate them, and temporary files scattered everywhere on your desktop. The solution: Soma Scratchpad is a floating, always-on-top staging area on your Windows desktop. Ctrl+V to collect text, screenshots, or files. One click to copy content or paths back to where you need them. Nothing lands in your project directory. Key features: - 📝 Text: Auto-generated summary titles, expand to edit inline, one-click copy - 🖼️ Images: Screenshots stored in an isolated directory — never in your Git repo - 📁 Files: Import via Ctrl+V or drag & drop, copy content or path - ⭐ Dock / Favorites / All: Temporary staging with persistent favorites - 🐱 Desktop cat: Minimizes to a small cat icon in the corner when you don't need it It's free, open source (MIT), and built with Tauri 2 + Rust + Svelte 5. All data stays local — no cloud, no telemetry. Would love to hear your feedback! What features would make this more useful for your workflow?
