Paste Images

Paste Images is a Raycast Script Command designed to address the challenge of pasting images into Claude Code sessions running on a remote machine over SSH. When using Claude Code remotely, the application cannot directly access images from the local Mac's clipboard, as clipboard contents do not transfer across the SSH connection. This tool provides a streamlined solution by enabling users to copy an image to their clipboard, trigger a hotkey, and have the image automatically streamed to the /tmp/ directory on the remote machine via Tailscale SSH. Once the transfer is complete, the script replaces the local clipboard contents with the bare file path of the uploaded image on the remote system. This approach allows users to paste the remote file path directly into their Claude Code session, where Claude's Read tool can then access and load the image file without additional manual steps. The tool is intended for developers or users who work with Claude Code on remote machines and need an efficient way to transfer clipboard images for coding or AI-related tasks. The process is initiated by copying an image (for example, using Cmd-Ctrl-Shift-4 on Mac for a screen region), triggering the script's hotkey, and then pasting the resulting file path into the SSH session. Paste Images is delivered as a Raycast Script Command and uses Tailscale SSH for secure file transfer. The evidence states that the tool is available for free. No information is provided regarding licensing terms beyond its free availability, nor are details given about supported platforms other than Mac or additional integrations beyond Raycast and Tailscale SSH. The tool is positioned as a utility for clipboard image transfer in remote development workflows involving Claude Code.
