Use the current selection
Open PasteWand with the text, files, or folder you just copied already prepared as the task input.
Keep your hands on the keyboard and your attention on the work. Select text, files, or a folder, press one shortcut, and tell PasteWand what the finished result should be.

System-wide shortcuts
Capture what is selected, reset the current work into a fresh task, or bring PasteWand forward from anywhere on your system.
Defaults for the selected system are shown. If a binding is unavailable during setup, PasteWand uses the next supported combination; every shortcut can be changed in Settings.
Open PasteWand with the text, files, or folder you just copied already prepared as the task input.
Clear the current conversation and working changes while keeping the captured content ready for a new direction.
Show and focus the command window without reaching for system menus or switching windows.
A shorter path to done
PasteWand removes setup steps around the work. The Agent still gets a complete, bounded task and you still review the result before it returns.
Copy text from any app, one file, several files, or an entire folder.
PasteWand captures the current clipboard only when you explicitly invoke it.
Ask for the outcome directly instead of finding a feature or configuring a project first.
Inspect the result, continue refining it, then apply only the changes you approve.
Quick tasks, full capability
Small fixes and substantial deliverables begin through the same lightweight entry. PasteWand adapts its tools to the content and the result you request.
Fast without being careless
Shortcuts accelerate the task entry. PasteWand keeps the deliberate boundaries that matter when an Agent can use tools and change real work.
No upload dialog, permanent project, or path explanation. The content you selected becomes the explicit scope of the task.
Agent results stay in a private staging workspace until you inspect them and choose Apply. Originals remain untouched until then.
Choose from multiple supported key combinations for capture, new task, and open app, directly in PasteWand Settings.
Stay in the flow
Select the work in front of you, press your shortcut, and hand the complete task to PasteWand.
