# clipboard-mcp [](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/cmeans/clipboard-mcp) An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that reads and writes your system clipboard — tables, plain text, code, JSON, URLs, images, and more. Preserves structure when possible (e.g. spreadsheet row/column layout) and returns non-tabular content cleanly. ## The Problem When you copy cells from Google Sheets or Excel and paste into Claude's chat input, the tabular structure (rows and columns) is destroyed — it arrives as a flat string with no delimiters. And for non-tabular content, there's no easy way to say "look at what I copied" without manually pasting. ## The Solution Instead of pasting, tell Claude to **"read my clipboard"**. This MCP server reads the clipboard directly and handles any content type: spreadsheet tables (returned as Markdown, JSON, or CSV), images (returned as image content), code snippets, JSON data, URLs, rich HTML text, and plain text. It can also **write** to the clipboard, so Claude can copy results back for you to paste elsewhere. ## Tools | Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | `clipboard_paste` | **Primary tool.** Read any clipboard content — tables, text, code, JSON, URLs, images. Tables are formatted as Markdown/JSON/CSV; pass `include_schema=true` to append inferred column types (integer, float, currency, percentage, date, boolean, text). Images are returned as image content; other content is returned with smart formatting. | | `clipboard_copy` | Write text to the system clipboard | | `clipboard_read_raw` | Return raw clipboard content for a given MIME type — supports text formats plus `image/svg+xml`, `application/json`, `application/xml`, `application/xhtml+xml` (diagnostic) | | `clipboard_list_formats` | List what MIME types are currently on the clipboard | ## Setup ### Prerequisites **Python 3.11+** and one of: [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) (recomme…
