Copy Please Clean Format
✨ AI-Powered View on Chrome Web StoreChrome will indicate if you already have this installed.
Overview
Copy Please! is a lightweight, privacy-respecting extension that instantly copies selected text - no keyboard shortcuts needed.
Features:
Auto Copy: Instantly copy selected text in plain or rich text format.
Remove AI Characters: Hidden Unicode, Em-Dash and Emoji Characters
Clipboard Management: Clear the clipboard after a set time or after pasting.
Text Formatting: Change case (UPPERCASE, camelCase, leet), remove whitespace, or apply custom regex rules.
Add Metadata: Prepend/append source URL, timestamp, or a custom comment.
Bypass Copy Restrictions: Re-enable right-click, text selection, and context menus on restricted sites.
Middle Click Paste: Paste with the middle mouse button.
Custom Site Rules: Allow or block the extension on specific websites.
Copy Notifications: Get optional alerts or visual indicators when text is copied.
Why Use It?
No more Ctrl+C. Save time, boost productivity, and always have the right format in your clipboard.
NOTES
Works with most websites - even those with copy restrictions.
Whitespace from the beginning and end of selection will be removed by default on plain text copy.
Privacy-friendly: No tracking. All processing is local.
Notes
The extension works with any URL type, but to support file:/// URLs you must enable this on the extension management page by checking the setting 'Allow access to file URLs'.
When an option is changed, web pages must be reloaded before the changes will take effect.
