ClipNote – Smart Clipboard & Web Notes

ClipNote — Smart Clipboard & Web Notes Your all-in-one sidebar companion for capturing, organizing, and protecting information as you browse. ClipNote lives in Chrome's side panel, giving you instant access to per-site notes, automatic clipboard history, quick-access data snippets, a global task list, and encrypted notebooks — all without leaving the page you're on. WHY CLIPNOTE? Every day you copy text, jot down quick thoughts, and juggle information across dozens of tabs. But where does it all go? ClipNote solves this by giving every website its own dedicated workspace right inside your browser. Notes you write on GitHub stay on GitHub. Clipboard items you copy on Stack Overflow stay linked to Stack Overflow. And when you need something that follows you everywhere — global notebooks, tasks, and quick data snippets are always one click away. CORE FEATURES Per-Domain Notes ClipNote automatically associates your notes with the website you're currently viewing. Switch tabs and your notes switch with you. Each domain gets its own set of notebooks, so your research notes for one project never mix with another. - Create multiple notebooks per website to keep topics organized - Rich text editing with bold, highlights, bullet lists, numbered lists, checkboxes, and horizontal dividers - Customizable highlight colors — choose from seven colors to mark up your notes exactly how you want - Font size controls to adjust text size up or down within your notes - Undo and redo support with dedicated toolbar buttons and keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y) - Autosave with a 700ms debounce — your notes are saved automatically as you type, with a visual confirmation indicator - Byte counter showing real-time notebook size against the 100 KB per-notebook limit - Plain-text paste — all pasted content is automatically stripped of HTML formatting for clean, consistent notes - Copy All button to quickly copy the entire note content to your clipboard Global Notebooks Need notes that aren't tied to any specific website? Global notebooks are available on every page you visit. Use them for personal reference material, project plans, meeting notes, or anything that doesn't belong to a single domain. - Same full-featured editor as per-domain notes - Multiple notebooks with create, rename, and delete support - Independent from domain-specific content — always accessible regardless of which site you're on Automatic Clipboard History ClipNote silently captures everything you copy on any webpage. No manual action required — just copy text as you normally would, and ClipNote records it. - Captures standard copy events (Ctrl+C, right-click Copy, keyboard shortcuts) - Intercepts programmatic clipboard writes — when sites use "Copy" buttons that call navigator.clipboard.writeText() directly (like GitHub and Stack Overflow code blocks), ClipNote captures those too - Up to 50 items stored per domain with automatic deduplication — if you copy the same text twice, it won't create a duplicate entry - Each item shows relative timestamps ("2 min ago", "yesterday") and can be re-copied with one click - Delete individual items or clear the entire history for a domain - Items are stored per-domain, so your clipboard history for each site stays separate and organized Quick Data A global key-value store for the snippets you use constantly. Store your email addresses, account numbers, API keys, shipping addresses, phone numbers, or any frequently-needed text for instant one-click access. - Add labeled entries with values up to 2,000 characters - Copy any value to your clipboard with a single click - Edit or delete entries at any time - Duplicate label detection prevents accidental overwrites - Available on every website — not tied to a specific domain Tasks A built-in global task list inspired by Microsoft To Do. Manage your to-do items right alongside your notes and clipboard without switching to a separate app. - Add tasks by typing and pressing Enter or clicking Add - Mark tasks as complete with a satisfying circular checkbox - Filter between Active, Done, or All tasks using the segmented control - Each task shows when it was created with a relative timestamp - Delete individual tasks with the hover-reveal delete button - Clear all completed tasks at once with the "Clear done" button - Task count summary showing progress (e.g., "3/7 done") - Tasks persist across all websites and sync with cloud storage SAFE MODE — ENCRYPTED NOTEBOOKS Protect sensitive information with military-grade encryption. Any notebook — whether per-domain or global — can be locked with a password. - AES-256-GCM encryption using the Web Crypto API - PBKDF2 key derivation with 600,000 iterations for strong password protection - Your password is never stored anywhere — it's used to derive an encryption key and then discarded - Random salt and initialization vector generated for each encryption operation - Locked notebooks display a secure overlay — the encrypted content cannot be viewed or edited without the correct password - Visual lock indicator in the notebook dropdown so you always know which notebooks are protected - Lock and unlock from the toolbar with a dedicated padlock button - Password confirmation required when locking to prevent typos - Works on both per-domain and global notebooks SEARCH ACROSS EVERYTHING Quickly find anything you've saved in ClipNote with the unified search feature. Search across all your notes, clipboard history, and quick data entries simultaneously. - Searches across all stored domains — not just the current site - Results grouped by category: Notes, Clipboard, and Quick Data - Keyword highlighting in search results so you can quickly spot matches - Click a note result to navigate to it; click a clipboard or quick data result to copy its value - Debounced search input for smooth, responsive results as you type EXPORT AND BACKUP Never lose your data. ClipNote provides multiple export formats to back up o…
